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

All immigrant applications should be considered based on our current immigration policy.

Only if someone/group will privately sponsor them.

Background check but not continued monitoring
@8RR3K4K4yrs4Y
I dont have an issue with Syrian refugees or any other refugees but I don't believe we should accept any others. We have plenty of kids who are hungry and homeless individuals. I think its our job to take care of own first and creates solutions to help before we accept additional people
@8R27KDMLibertarian4yrs4Y
Only if they are willing to contribute to our economy
@8QKWLTB4yrs4Y
Yes so long as they pass current Canadian immigration standards. Refugees should get priority over regular applicants due to their more dire situation.
@8PJMGYM4yrs4Y
No, we have done our part already. We should focus on Canada and put Canadians first. We shouldn't intervene other countries' affairs
@8P6NKHGLibertarian4yrs4Y
Yes, however, prioritize families and make sure the selected location has adequate schools with enough space.
@8NYQPHWLibertarian4yrs4Y
Stop supporting the wars making the refugees
@8NVXXNM4yrs4Y
Yes, but with minimal financial support
@8NVSM69Libertarian4yrs4Y
Yes, but after background checks and at no expense to taxpayer.
@8KRZFZX4yrs4Y
High skilled immigrant workers. Not low skilled workers that would lower the wage for the working man.
