Yes, and ban all immigration until the government improves its screening process

We should not ban all Muslim immigration based on the actions of a few individuals. Everybody who comes to Canada should be judged according to merit no matter where their from.

Muslims are not the only terrorists and we cannot decide if a person is a terrorist just by knowing his religion

No, governments shouldn’t ban people that are muslims as they are stereotyped as “terrorists” cause at this era and year everyone can be a potential terrorist, doesn’t matter what ethnicity/religion every human can make a choice of being a terrorist

It's essential to understand that the majority of Muslims are not terrorists. The actions of a few extremists do not represent an entire religious group. According to the Global Terrorism Database, which tracks terrorism incidents worldwide, the overwhelming majority of victims of terrorism are Muslims themselves. Data from organizations like the United States Institute of Peace and the National Counterterrorism Center show that terrorism threats are not limited to any one religion.

You can’t just assume any Muslim person is going to be a threat to the country and it’s not only Muslims who can come in and terrorize.

If the screening process is made harsher. it should be made harsher for all immigrants, not just muslims.

There is the possibility of a terrorist NOT being Muslim. Not all terrorist of Islamic roots, therefore they should not be the only group of people being oppressed in relation to terrorism.

Why are Muslims the only kind of "terrorist threat?" The screening should be harder on EVERYONE, not just Muslim immigrants. Muslims are also at danger as well.

We shouldn’t ban all immigration for muslims just because of what happened in the past, this is just discriminating muslims, giving the muslims who had nothing to do with the past, more trouble in the future.

I think that this rule should not exist because not all muslims are terrorists and this promotes discrimination against muslims who are innocent and trying to build a home and good environment for their families

If you break it down to the bare bones of what your saying, it all just leads back to racism anyone could be a terrorist. It wouldn't be morally right to only screen one race of people and if you really want to screen people screen everyone.

Immigration should be halted temporarily, rather all immigration should be banned forever. There's only a limited amount of land, housing, good services to go around and increasing the number of people in Canada raises the demand and prices of everything. Therefore, if Canadians want the price of goods and services to keep going up then all immigration should be stopped.

Banning immigrants based on their religion is wrong because you are saying that all Muslim immigrants are terrorists.

This is discriminatory towards Muslims and what one man did does not represent what a religion or nation is.

Banning any one particular group of people promotes several problems like racism, segregation, whatever. We cannot make any generalizations about a population because it is impossible for all of a group to be “bad.”
It would be greatly hypocritical for a country that has much bigger things to worry about.

A ban on Muslim’s would not only greatly offend the international community but cause a great divide in our country. Canada needs immigrants for the survival of the country and we cannot ban any specific cultural or ethnic group.

I think that this rule should not exist because not all muslims are terrorists and this promotes discrimination against muslims who are innocent and trying to build a home and good environment for their families

No u should not cause maybe in their country there are lots of bad stuff happen and there moving to canada for a safer environment

Who says only Muslims are terrorists? Terrorism covers a large demographic not limited to one specific race or religion. In our court of law you are always innocent until proven guilty, not guilty until proven innocent.

Islam isn’t a religion of terrorism. The world wars were started because of the Christians. I can’t say it was because of their religion, it was the people.

It is racism because basing the bad people from a culture off their entire culture is racism and until the person is proven bad its only the rare few nobody has an entirely perfect race.

I think everyone should be let into the country whether their background has a minority of people who are evil

No, because the majority of Muslims are not terrorists and we should make stronger regulations on terrorists in general but labelling them as Muslim terrorists is fear-mongering and creates Islamaphobic tension/violence.

They are not all terrorist, infact most are against the idea but still have to suffer the consequences

Muslim immigrants make up 5% of canadian immigration, the main source of population growth for canada

Banning all immigration (mainly against Muslims) is discriminatory and though some people think its for Canada's safety, It isn't really and most immigrants just want safety or a fresh start.

Its stupid considering the fact that 1) I'm Muslim and 2) anyone has the capability to commit a crime if they wanted to

Hard to tell or verify, and if terrorism is a major issue then why not improve screening processes against all religions and race.

why should only Muslims be banned? if you are going to screen Muslims, you should also screen all the other religions.

No, because Failure to Address Real Threats: Blanket bans on Muslim immigrants do not effectively address the threat of terrorism. Terrorism is a complex and multi-faceted issue, and terrorists can come from various backgrounds and religious affiliations. The vast majority of Muslims are not terrorists, and focusing solely on their religion as a basis for immigration bans is a misguided approach that ignores the root causes of extremism. Banning immigration based on religion goes against the principles of equality and religious freedom that many democratic societies hold dear. It unfairly discriminates against a specific religious group and infringes upon their basic human rights. This approach is fundamentally unjust and contradicts the values that many nations strive to uphold.

No, because the majority of Muslims are not terrorists and we should make stronger regulations on terrorists in general but labelling them as Muslim terrorists is fear-mongering and creates Islamaphobic tension/violence.

It’s just racist. No other ethnic group requires mandatory screening to immigrate somewhere, so it’s unfair that Muslim’s would have too

While many believe that the government should be doing this, I however do not believe they should because many to come to Canada as refugees meaning their trying to better their lives for their family from different acts such as war, conflict or persecution. Many of these refugees being from Muslim descent and come from Muslim countries. Coming from this fact,if many Muslims have to wait for screening for approval many lives can be lost waiting for the approval to better their lives for their family. In conclusion, many muslims are not terrorist but instead the exact opposite.

Muslim immigrants should not be singled out and have a more strict screening process on them because other religions also have terrorist groups within them and if the government decides to improve their screening process they should increase it on all individuals.

Not all muslims are terrorists and this should not be applied to muslim immigrants only while other races and ethnicities could potentially threaten the national security.

im an arab immigrant and I haven't done anything wrong and neither have the millions of the other arabs. The possibility of one of them being arab is so low and while you should prepare in case of one, you shouldn't ban muslims and arabs entirely.

This is a form of racism. They should be doing this to all citizens trying to enter the country since terrorism isn’t just among Muslim people.

Being muslim or an immagrant isn't a stereotype, most times it shows commitment to their religion, government screening or not.

that such a ban would be discriminatory and unconstitutional. The so-called "Muslim Ban" implemented by the Trump administration was met with legal challenges and court injunctions on the grounds that it constituted religious discrimination
. The Supreme Court allowed the ban to go into full effect while it was being litigated, but did not express any views about the merits of the ban and did not find or suggest that the ban is constitutional or compatible with immigration laws
. The ACLU and other organizations have been challenging the ban since its inception and have repeatedly…  Read more found it to be unconstitutional and illegal
. Therefore, implementing a ban on Muslim immigrants until the government improves its screening process would be discriminatory and unconstitutional. Instead, the government should work to improve its screening process without discriminating against any particular group of people.

Well, not EVERYONE is a terrorist, you have to understand that. And Canada has a strong Police system so we should automatically be able to defend against terrorists.

It is unconstitutional to ban immigrants because of their religious background. The screening process should be more difficult on everyone.

there are already many muslims living in Canada and none of them are terrorists. Terrorists are only a small group of people in the muslim community, like how there are only people in the room, but the people in the room aren't the only people
