Should immigrants be deported if they commit a serious crime?

If they are a canadian citizen then no. They should be treated like any other citizen.

Only if it’s safe back in their home country, and it depends on the crime, for example, theft can not be compared to something like sexual assault.

only if they're not a full Canadian citizen

If they are citizens of Canada they should be tried as Canadians, if they are not yet they should be deported unless they won't be safe in their home country (ie. they are of an identity that will face persecution, they are personally at risk if they return, or if the punishment for their crime would be inhuman such as torture or the death penalty.)

If they're a citizen then no. If they have t become citizen, yes. If it's safe

No, they should serve time in the country they immigrated to

No, they should have to complete their sentence in the country

not if they are a legal citizen

It all depends on where the crime is done.

Depending on if the country they are getting deported to could kill them eg; North Korea

no, they should be allowed to receive the same punishment as everyone else

depends on how bad the crime may be

Immigrants should have the same sentence as somebody that’s not an immigrant.

Depends if they have full citizenship or not

It depends on the circumstances and who they have in the country

Yes, as long as it is safe to do so and only if the crime was murder.

No they should be put in jail or get whatever other typical punishment

Depends on the crime. They are too strict on small offences. Onle crimes of a sexual or violent nature should be deported

Only if it is a serious violent crime other wise no they live here too

No, if they committed the crime in our country then they should go through our country’s processes

Depends on the serious crime committed

We should help them

Yes until they become permanent residents

If it is safe to enter their own country, but also depending on the crime. People who have committed more severe crimes that pose a larger threat to Canadian safety should be deported, but illegal immigrants should not be.

If we had implements in place to aid the immigrants that the government itself approves to enter to country this wouldn't be an issue in the first place.

Sometimes, and particularly of they are not yet citizens.

No, they should serve time in jail as Canadian born citizens would

Depending on the severity of the crime, and how said crime poses a threat to society if that type of behaviour continues, then yes

I think so only only if it is extremely serious where it harms plenty of Canadian citizens

Depends on what kind of crime

Depends on what the crime was, if they've served their sentence and if there's no fear that they will be a danger to their own country/its people.

No, only if they have entered illegal unless it is unsafe to return to their country

It depends on the crime...

No, if they are an official citizen then they receive punishment given by Canadian law

Dependant on crime.

I think it depends on severity of the crime, time served, and whether or not there has been genuine human rehabilitation.

I believe that as long as they serve a jail sentence for their crimes, it doesn't matter to me personally whether they serve their time here or their home country.

yes and no. although it still depends on the records of the individual

depending on the crime and past criminal record

Yes, if they have not been granted citizenship, then they should be deported and not imprisoned on taxpayers dime.

Only if it is a sexual or violent crime such as homicide

Yes, depending on the severity. First degree murder and rape should be reason to send immigrants back to their original country as long as its safe to return, if its murder done in protection for themselves i believe they should have the right to stay in Canada

Case by case basis to be determined in a court of law

Depends on what the crime was and how you define a serious crime.

It depends on how harsh the crime is

Only if it the crime was malicious/violent in nature.

No, they should serve their time or take whatever penalties any other Canadian would receive.

Only if it would be safe for them to return

Honestly it just depends, there’s always two sides to a story

No, they should be put in jail in canada

No, they should be tried as any Canadian

Yes, if they were recent immigrants

It depends on how long they've been in the country and what they did.

depends on the severity of the crime, how long they've been in canada and how safe it is for them to return

Only if these commit very serious crime (murder, sexual abuse)

I believe they should serve their sentence here in Canada because they are a citizen here now. Deporting them wouldn’t make sense because they need to face the consequences of their actions.

if they're a citizen and charged then they're a Canadian citizen. if they're a permanent resident then they should serve their sentence and see the court to determine their staying in Canada or not

Yes, if the crime is a severe offense.

I feel this is something that should be determined on a case by case basis after serving their sentence.

If they are failed to be rehabilitated and commit again they should go back

Depending on the type of the crime

They are a citizen already, it makes no sense

They should receive a punishment like any other citizen.

Yes, if it’s safe for them to return to their country and they entered Canada illegally

No. I think violent crimes are a result of desperation, lack of resources, and being shut down in a system. I think we should have more programming to support success among new Canadians. If they commit a violent crime, provide the support they need. Don't tear apart families. If it's a refugee, be compassionate -- they clearly left for a reason. Don't send them back to a dangerous place.

No, they should be required to serve their sentence and then stay.

No, rehabilitate them and give them a path to citizenship
