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 there does need to be improvements to the screening, and the government should keep an eye on them to make sure they aren't dangerous.
@8VNGZ374yrs4Y
yes and no I think they should bane the ones with a criminal record, I also think they should have driving training.
@8VJVNDV4yrs4Y
I addressed this basically under refuges - we need right immigration rules for safety and health. It should never be about the speed of entry over the safety and health of Canadians
@8RJB7QRConservative4yrs4Y
no, this is called a a breach of the charter of rights and a criminal offence i should sue you for asking this
@8QFS26J4yrs4Y
No, but significantly reduce the number allowed
@8PBKVHB4yrs4Y
No, but if they have criminal background then check if they have connections to terrorism.
@8NZBBCN4yrs4Y
they should limit the number of immigrants from anywhere till the ability to screen the terrorists out
@8HJJH2Q5yrs5Y
I think that they should be allowed but the border officials have to check very carefully.
@macmasd5yrs5Y
I think it should seriously restrict the amount of immigration to Canada. It taxes our system and in turn taxes Canadians when funds are needed.
@8DJL63J5yrs5Y
No but we immigrants from "high risk" countries if they aren't refugees
They should be allowed to immigrate but after two weeks of settling into life, they need to go through a screening process.
@97HFDN3Conservative2yrs2Y
Banning immigrants from a country because of their race is not right but making sure that their are no potential terrorist is not wrong it is just taking care of your country are part of our duty.
@95PG9BB3yrs3Y
i believe they should be screened closely but i don't think it's right to refuse everyone access
