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.

Definetly a stronger screening process!
@8VQCVBGLibertarian4yrs4Y
The government should be screening all immigrants for potential terrorists, not just Muslims.
@8VHVSSB4yrs4Y
Similar to, "no, but we should ban immigrants from high risk countries", as an inclusion, immigration should work with the Ministry of Justice and it's counterpart country from where person is immigrating from.
@8TQ845B4yrs4Y
Any immigrants should be screened for a terrorist background not just muslims or people of other religions.
@8TM7B2S4yrs4Y
No, banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional, but they should also be screened for any criminal activity or potential criminal record.
@8PJMGYM4yrs4Y
No, but secure more from higher risk countries
@8NWJ3SPLibertarian4yrs4Y
No, but we should restrict immigrants from “high risk” countries. banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional
@8NMJNN2Libertarian4yrs4Y
There should be a cap on how many immigrants we allow per year. It should be much less than the Liberal's current stance.
@98TL8FMLibertarian2yrs2Y
They should only allow people that they can vet well doesn’t matter where they are from
@9BY747JNew Democratic2yrs2Y
No, accepting them after a strict background check
@99HN34H2yrs2Y
Yes. But not even Muslims. Everyone can be bad
@96BF4HR3yrs3Y
Make it as strict as possible and as much of a pain in the *** to do and in the meantime run screening and background checks to be safe. If there's no red flags they are free to come on in.
@9638H6G3yrs3Y
@8YGCHDQLibertarian3yrs3Y
No, but conduct background check on immigrants
