Should sanctuary cities receive federal funding?

Yes, but it should be on the lower end of funding so we can use more money on things such as healthcare and the environment

Depending on the situation of an individual, there may be circumstances where they must live undocumented. So funding should be the same throughout each city.

yes but more so, they should have the right to create fund raising opportunities to sustain their necessities and empower their members.

No. Instead, sanctuary cities should only be used for immigrants transitioning to become Canadian citizens and housing refugees in times of emergency. They should be given basic needs such as; access to housing, integration into Canadian way of life, and education. As such, they should receive funding from the provincial government. The federal government may only intervene in certain cases and if necessary, action to enforce immigration law.

I believe that sanctuary cities should receive federal funding so long as the immigrants are not permanently residing there, it should be somewhere to live temporarily while the find jobs and a place to live

Give them federal funding for there situations and try to regulate it and to help them become more people of society

Yes, but to a certain point, where it is enough to do further research on the indivieul's past to encore any of their records interme of criminal offenses.

Yes, but the people living in these sanctuaries should have access to make themselves a documented individual.

Yes but they shouldn't be against federal immigration policies. If they are that's when it's time to cut funding

No. People in sanctuary cities should be put to work to make the cities function. This will help the people to assimilate to the Canadian culture and it's not burdening the economy.

end war on drugs

end the war on drugs

No, not if they do not abide by federal laws

Yes, if we are going to take the responsibility of letting people into our country, we should try our best to set them up for success and help out where we can.

Yes, and we should either rotate the current sanctuary cities to others in Canada or faze it out cause we obviously can’t house our own citizens and sanctuary cities are becoming overpopulated and dire housing crisis

I am unsure of what this question mean s

We should provide these individuals with a path to immigrate properly rather then punish them however we shouldn’t just allow people to enter without being properly vetted and not have a process to deal with them.

Municipal budget should cover the expenses.

I think instead of prosecuting people who are undocumented or protecting them we should provide a way did them to get their documents

Question if this is a big issue in Canada. Seems an issue more for US due to more illegal migration.

Yes, but the people seeking sanctuary must be contributing members of society

end the war ond drugs

Abolish sanctuary cities

No they should not receive more funding the government but they should also not be penalized by the government.

Yes and no, it depends.

No, there shouldn't be a need for them to exist in the first place. The government should be a lot less harsh on immigration policies.

If they receive federal funding, they would no longer be sanctuary cities.

No, but they should recieve a protection policy

Yes, just like every city.

Federal funding should help these individuals get out of sanctuary cities

No, ban sanctuary cities, and distribute immigrants more evenly across the nation.

Yes, but the cities should determine how best to spend it and do their best to control costs.

I think that provincial funding makes more sense.

No just end the war on drugs and focus on rehabilitation instead

End the war on drugs

Yes, but it depends on how the money is allocated to these people.

Yes, but other non sanctuary cities should recieve more federal funding than sanctuary cities to encourage immigrants to move their

We should find out why they are here before sending deciding to send them back.

Sanctuary zones should be private and taxed.

We should not be responsible for refugees

No, the idea and definition of a sanctuary city is complicated and used mostly just to deflect from the actual issue.

Yes, but not as much as other cities

If the government continues to provide sanctuary cities, then yes those cities should receive funding. But we should stop the program altogether.

I would need more clarity on how funding would be allocated, and it’s difficult to decide when two sanctuary cities might be drastically different. A good idea might be to provide funded outreach helping new individuals to become documented citizens.

Poorly worded question. Need to clearly define what is meant by sanctuary city in the Canadian context, and how any federal funding, should it be provided, would be applied.

Yes, if they work, and ingrate themselves as Canadian citizens

somewhat, unless they are not contributing to the goevernment at all

Yes, although Canada does not have any sanctuary cities.

If this is asking if they should continue to receive existing funding in general for other things, yes, but if it asking if they should receive funding for being a sanctuary city, then no
