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.

Background check before they come and then when it is safe to go back then they should go back.

yes, but they need to become working productive members of society

It is the rules of entry that need to be strictly enforced for the safely and betterment of all Canadians. This would then afford the opportunity for entry of refuges. Canada must/needs to be fully transparent.

@8TVWP8T4yrs4Y
Yes more refugees should be accepted and the first serve should be based on proximity of danger or hotspots

Refugees should only be excepted on a temporary basis with the goal being sending then home when the circumstances allow
@8TLSVP74yrs4Y
Yes, but a family member who is able to fight should have to train with the military and then be sent back to fight for their country. The exception would be for single parents.

@8PBKVHB4yrs4Y
Yes, but we can't bring in an endless amount of we will overpopulate.
Everyone is the same and equal rights are important. We can’t let to many people in though to not have too many non Canadians and that isn’t just directed at Syrians but everyone.
@macmasd5yrs5Y
I think there should be a limit per year on how many refugees are allowed to come into Canada. Once here, there should be a phased protocol on how much money they can get access to. Healthcare should come first, but not welfare or other support.
