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.

No, as the war in Syria is over and the population did re-elect the same president again.
@94JV6RQConservative3yrs3Y
Yes, and extensive background checks and health status should be considered.
@92ZNFL73yrs3Y
Accepting immigrants as long as our economical structure can support it

I have absolutely no idea
@8V47J864yrs4Y
Yes, but only after extensive background checks and they will return to Syria when it is safe.
@8TH52KV4yrs4Y
You can't just invite people from a war torn country without a plan in place. Mental Health for PTSD,Hiring more Teacher Assistants in public schools to reduce stress on both the new student and teacher as well as other classmates, English classes to provide students with a base instead of just throwing them into a classroom setting that is predominantly English and cultural classes for both Canadians and Syrian students to help understand each other. If you are not willing to put the work in then you should not allow so many people in at one time. It doesn't help anyone.
@8S4JK9F4yrs4Y
Yes, but not at the expense of more qualified Canadian immigrants
@8TTWX844yrs4Y
Only if we fix the National housing crisis.

No, unless proven to provide significant contribution to our country
