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.

Canada should accept refugees from Syria but should only do so when they are sure that they area able to actually provide help
@955LBYV3yrs3Y
If Canada has the availability and ability to hold and take care of them yes
@8VW89C9New Democratic4yrs4Y
Yes, but only after extensive background checks and a 2 year monitoring period
@8VSDVY2New Democratic4yrs4Y
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.
@8VRK7FC4yrs4Y
Only those with legitimate refugee claims for asylum- personal safely
@8VLJX2R4yrs4Y
Accept from Philippines too
@8VJ744N4yrs4Y
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

Not at the expense of all other applicants.
