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.

No but all immigrants should have their vetting GREATLY increased.
Muslim immigrants should be screened to the utmost, but not outright banned however
Muslim immigrants should be banned permanently. In fact all immigration should be banned permanently. As a last resort if we urgently need immigrants for whatever reason we should only let in white immigrants which means white Europeans, white South Americans or White South Africans.
Being muslim is a religion , everyone entering canada should be screen for potential terriorist's.
Yes, we should stop taking all immigrants until we decrease our national debt and increase our spending towards taking care of veterans
Immigrants from any country associated with “high risk” activities should have more screening
As long as the individual passed a background check
Yes, but for all immigrants
All people (immigrants) should be screened for the safety and increase of this country…
Need to look after our own country and the current issues before helping outside
No but screening does need to be improved
Yes, but only is they come from Terrorist prone countries (Middle East)
We should be slowing down immigration across all borders until we can take care of our own citizens.
@8V4M9G44yrs4Y
People who are terrorists should not be allowed in, and our officials should stop praising terrorists
@8V3VB45Conservative4yrs4Y
the Immigrants are leaving in such mass that after the wars are over there will be a lack of skilled and educated workers. So we should have less immigration from the middle east
No, but all immigrants should be heavily screened, and should have the ability to provide contribution to the country regardless of religion.
On top of better screening the best of the best should stay in their country so their country can become like ours. It's that reason why their economy is trash.
I think they should go through an a screening process but should not be banned
I support legal immigration, but we should be screening for terrorists very thoroughly
All immigrants should have the same requirements applied to them as potential f/a applicants
@8R39K474yrs4Y
No, Banning immigrants off of their religion is unconstitutional, but have a background and criminal background check.
Immigration should be banned across the board
No, but a better screening process for immigrants from "high risk" regions
No probably 99.9% of the Muslim immigrants are just trying to get out of a bad country they come here to get away so no I think they should ah w the right to enter the country
No, as long as they're already screening them prior to entry into the country
If your going to screen the muslims for potential terrorist so should Ukraine immigrants.
@8VQGW5MNew Democratic4yrs4Y
All immigrants need to be screened equally well no matter what country.
yes, but not only muslims, in general there should be a background check for any possibility, of any race for possible terrorism.
No because terrorists try to show muslim people are terrorists and that's not true. so I say no.
@923Z93G3yrs3Y
Yes, as well as all other immigrants
