Montreal came up in a Ted Cruz tweet on Friday afternoon after the Calgary-born Texas senator attempted to troll Vice President Kamala Harris by retweeting a Sean Hannity article with the caption "Montreal is going to invade." 

The tweet was in reference to an article on Sean Hannity's site entitled "'Immigration Czar' Kamala Harris Finally Visits a Border State… New Hampshire."

Vice President Harris spent much of her formative years in Montreal, attending Westmount High while her mother worked at McGill Univesity and Jewish General Hospital.

Harris was recently appointed in a new immigration role for the White House.

Though Cruz's tweet begs the question, could a bunch of motivated Montrealers actually invade the United States?
