Should the U.S. accept refugees from Syria?

Yes, but the emphasis should be on persecuted minorities.

Yes with goal to send them back home

Canada should accept refugees from Syria but should only do so when they are sure that they area able to actually provide help

Yes, They should have good background checks and not be recieving government money

if they cool yeah

If they complete a clean criminal history check

We should accept a certain percent in relation to current population statistics, as well as a test to ensure safety

If Canada has the availability and ability to hold and take care of them yes

We should cut the amount of immigrants we let in by 70% at least

Yes. But only after an extensive background check. No one else other than that one person that was confirmed.

Only if they pass a background check and sign an oath to Canada

Yes, but only if they follow our needs for our country

no they stink

Yes if they follow the same process of every other refugee.

Yes, just as long as Muslims keep their faith to themselves

yes but create a more stable solution to the housing problem instead of not letting foreigners buy homes to fix it

Yes, but we need to cut down

Yes, I really think Canada should take in a lot more refugees. They should also do background checks however they should not delay and drag it out unless it's necessary for safety.

Only allow minorities. The christians are the target of the extremist and the Syrian government.

No, we should stop taking all refugees until we decrease our national debt and increase our spending towards taking care of veterans

I believe we should be taking care of the homeless due to mental health and military and focus on getting our own people okay before we start helping other countries. I think we have lots of work we need to do first before we can help others/

Canada should bring them if they have budget enough to keep the economy. And that come to work not lay around do nothing and be subsidized by the government.

Why would we? Fix your own dam country we have our own problems and issues to deal with.

No, if they do not work within the first 3 months of being in Canada, they must be sent back

Yes, but only after extensive background checks and a 2 year monitoring period

Yes but only an amount that the government is able to support financially without burdening Canadians.

No, we have a lot of refugees already. We should pay more attention and help Canadians first.

Accept immigrants but after screening

Yes, if those coming in don’t have any criminal record and will uphold the values of the Canadian people

we should accept if no crimes were committed

Yes, although don't give them as much support compared to other struggling true canadians

The government should follow its standard refuge process and volumes while working to support larger flux situations as possible with allied nations.

We need to fix problems in our own country than help others. Fix homelessness here before we bring other people here and give them the opportunities that our own people should have

Only if they conform to canadian values

Hard to answer, standstill with this one.

A mixture of monitoring potential threats and this is no longer relevant. Not all Syrians are terrorists and shouldn’t be treated like one. For the public’s safe of mind a background check should be done and if there is a threat then monitor them.

Yes, however, we need to be making sure that Canadians are getting proper supports, as well as the refugees.

Only those with legitimate refugee claims for asylum- personal safely

Shouldn't matter where there from as long as there not criminals

Families who are ready to work and be a part of the society, yes. People who are open minded and come here with the intentions to not change everything. As long as the people here have enough. Don’t want to overload.

Completely depends on the situation

Yes but only those who are in real danger, and they earn there money

i stand in the middle

Why single out Syria? We should stop immigration from England, France, and USA too

I feel that it would depend on the circumstance. Like if the the people were in danger because of an on going war or if they wanted to become educated here kinda thing.

We should follow trumps policy of getting our own country in order before accepting others into our country. Take care of our own before taking care of others

I would prefer not to answer

maybe a tiny bit

I think that it should be held off because there are too many refugees right now and it should just wait.

Accept from Philippines too

It’s a complicated issue that should be looked at closer. Canada should welcome folks from all over but we are currently struggling ourselves.

It depends if they are criminals or terrorists if they are not terrorists or criminals then sure.

Yes but make sure they don’t depend on social service and they have to work to live here

Yes, but the reason for background checks is to make sure they are criminal record-free and doing something while they are here. they need to be doing something to benefit the community.

Government should not be involved in arbitrary immigration quotas of any kind. People can voluntarily bring in as many refugees as they are willing to support, or pay to support them anywhere else possible.

Yes but with complete background check of individuals.but it should be done out of good will not for vote gain for political purposes

Yes if they work and are productive members of society and fulfill positions that our workforce needs. Do not give them government handouts and allow them to become independent and integrated members of society

With proper pass port

yes, but limit the amount of people coming in

With background checks and proof of who the individual is. As long as they are not a violent criminal or have connections to violent criminals then anyone should be able to apply to become a refugee

Just religious minorities and families.

Yes, we should base our immigration on skilled base.

we have taken in too many already

yes but first we have to know who they are and what did they have been done so we don't get in any trouble

They should be fully immunized on arrival as well as a complete health check at out government expense

Refugees and all new Canadians should work to pay for services,medical,education.like Denmark

Give high priority to women and children.

Accept refugees but there are many in need not only Syria

Yes but ensure they are good, contributing citizens of the world

if they are deemed able to be productive for the country

Yes, as long as they pass all screenings

Afghan refugees is the current most pressing refugee crisis.

Not all Syrians are Muslim 🙄. Accept families, no single women or men.

depends on circumstances that are placed to whoever comes into canada

not unless they can provide something to this country they should not be prioritized over people who are going through the migration process

Yes but background checks and recent check-in and tests to get them off their feet.

yes but not as many as we have

yes, and provide more resources to lead a successful life in Canada

yes and no, if it can be supported by our economy then yes. but i think canadian citizens should be the highest priority

No. Canadians first, others later. Too many are homeless as it is. Too many are struggling financially. No.

Members that can contribute. Utilize their educations!!!

I think Canada needs to take care of who is here now. Once that gets figured out then allow refugees

I agree with accepting refugees, however I believe we should look after our own seniors 1st and foremost

With far more stringent vetting and only if we accept refugees of other faiths and from other parts of the world equally as much. The Canadian Government is notoriously bigoted against Judaeo-Christian faiths and values.

Yes after extensive background checks and continuous monitoring to ensure they have no terrorist connections... and with the expectation they get substantial work to support themselves and their families and not be a burden to society

Yes, but we should be more focused on providing peace keeping aid to war torn countries so that refugees can return to their homes and be safe.

If pass all requirements and are giving zero money

Only if the contribute to society after background checks. Should be mandatory to speak English and come at their own expense. No free handouts

With the current amount of jobs in Canada, and immigration occurring. We should ensure that we have a healthy balanced immigration to job policy to further reduce unemployment in our country over time or at least get it to a historic all time low.

Only families and workers families should be permitted to enter, but only after INTENSE screening for terrorist connections.

yes but keep it on the slower side as alot of tax payers dollars are being spent on funnding for them

As long as they benefit our country

yes, but help the people here first

we should focus on homeless people and when that is taken care of take in refugees

Only families with extensive back round checks.

we should have a limit

Yes, of course we should assist people fleeing displacement and conflict

Yes, People are good for Canada so let them come!

Yes but make sure there are very strict
