President Obama recently declared that the U.S. will accept 10,000 refugees from Syria. The U.S. has been under pressure from its Syrian allies to help out with the crisis in which 3 Million refugees have fled Syria in the past year. Those in favor of accepting refugees believe that the U.S. has a duty to join its allies in Europe and accept at least 10,000 refugees. Opponents argue that the U.S. should stay out of this crisis and accepting refugees from the Middle East leads to a risk of letting terrorists into our borders.

Yes, but drive immigration/rehousing to provinces with affordable housing options ex. maritimes or prairies to alleviate housing pressures from the major cities.
@8KT5F9D4yrs4Y
Yes, but any handouts they are given should be given to Canadian citizens living below the poverty line first.
