Proponents argue that this strategy would bolster national security by minimizing the risk of potential terrorists entering the country. Enhanced screening processes, once implemented, would provide a more thorough assessment of applicants, reducing the likelihood of malicious actors gaining entry. Critics argue that such a policy might inadvertently promote discrimination by broadly categorizing individuals based on their nation of origin rather than specific, credible threat intelligence. It may strain diplomatic relations with the affected countries and potentially harm the perception of the nation enacting the ban, being seen as hostile or prejudiced towards certain international communities. Additionally, genuine refugees fleeing terrorism or persecution in their home countries might be unjustly denied safe haven.

Screening for all immigrants that could be terrorists or criminals should be top priority. Keeping all Canadians safe regardless of religion or gender.
@9FTH64S2yrs2Y
Ban all immigration and kick out the vast amount of illegals and students staying here without being enrolled
@9FLN9N2Conservative2yrs2Y
Anybody could be a terrorist. Proper vet checks shoyld be done
@9FB77922yrs2Y
No but all immigrants should have their vetting GREATLY increased.
@92XLW6X3yrs3Y
Ban all muslims from entering the countryside outright and permanently
@8VJ4TBZ4yrs4Y
I believe they should be allowed to come here if screening deems them safe however giving them money and homes should not be a part of the deal. We should be helping our own first as we have high homeless numbers and our seniors and veterans are being ignored in my opinion.
@8V4M9G44yrs4Y
People who are terrorists should not be allowed in, and our officials should stop praising terrorists
I support legal immigration, but we should be screening for terrorists very thoroughly
@8PP87TJ4yrs4Y
No, but careful selections process should be in place.
@8P7GPDV4yrs4Y

@98M38972yrs2Y
Don’t ban them put them on probation
@9BBJRD82yrs2Y
There should simply be intense background checks for any immigrants.
@93CFQKL3yrs3Y
They should reduce the number of immigrants that get to freely walk into the country. There needs to be more of a process to achieve that goal.
@8NX8F2X4yrs4Y
In certain circumstances we can let them in but they must be monitored or in confinement until it’s proven they are safe and will adhere to our laws
@8TB798W4yrs4Y
No, but extra scrutiny should be given Muslin immigrants.
