What would stop a Mexican from buying a ticket to cananda, and walking south across the border?

Hopefully, "Canandian" immigration.

Perhaps. I imagine it is pretty easy to get a tourist visa to Canada, though.

Or maybe it is not - I am not Mexican. The times I have been to Canada, the border controls - where they existed - were trivial.

Actually, I am kind of curious - why DO mexicans pay mules thousands of dollars to smuggle them across the desert, when for a couple of hundred, they could buy a plane ticket to Canada, and take a taxi into the US?
