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, provided they respect Canadian values, including equality of race, gender and sexual orientation.
@8LG95RH4yrs4Y
Yes, but decisions should be made on a provincial level.
@8KBR3MJ4yrs4Y
Yes but we should take care of our own homeless and vets before accepting even more immigrants. If we can’t take care of our own how can we take care of others?
