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, do thorough background checks, and look a bit harder at higher risk countries not based on religion though.
@8WYHRX63yrs3Y
No, we shouldn't bann muslims rom entering the country unless we're able to tell who might be a terrorist.
@8VS8TWJ4yrs4Y
Immigrants should all go through the same screening process prior to immigrating to Canada. Giving a whole religion more strict policies is biased, unjust, and does not stand by the equality value of Canada. Most of the immigrants trying to come to Canada, are just trying to escape terrible lives in their Native countries.
@8VK4WCR4yrs4Y
I don't think we should ban them. But they should be able to show sustainability in our country and that they don't bring more strain on an already crippling society
@8PF4DQ54yrs4Y
It should be like that for all Immigrants, not just Muslims.
@8MYCFN34yrs4Y
Do extensive backround checks on everyone from high risk countries
@8HBG22FNew Democratic5yrs5Y
Not informed enough to comment
This question enters the facts that we know for certain who a terrorist is...when in fact anyone can be one and it's not from one race or religion.
@96NYVLY2yrs2Y
No, but reduce immigration overall.
@96D37JGConservative3yrs3Y
Depends based off of their past in their country
@9638H6G3yrs3Y
