No, they should serve their sentence in Canada
No, but he have to go to the jail like if he killed someone, he have to go life in jail or something like that.
No if they are full citizens or permanent residents. Yes if they are not full citizens and their country is safe to return to
The government system should be able to make sure the immigrant's homeland is safe and alright to live in. They should also check if the immigrants is changed person or undergo therapy and help.
should face consequences but not be deported
Just serve their sentence
Yes and No. Yes if they have been charged multiple times No because if theyre a legal citizen, they should only finish their senetence.
yes, if they do not have a permanent citizenship have served their sentance and its safe for them to return to their country
If they have become a citizen they should serving the sentence but non citizen should srrve and in the end if they plead innocnet or are clear now should stay however if they continue, they should get deported whereas I think a refugee should serve but also be given another chance seince they come as a refugee and getting deported would be serious and harmful to them
it depends on how big the crime is if it is a act of terroirsm than yes if not than just do your time in jail
@9MF8SPN11mos11MO
Only if they have been rightfully convicted of a seriously felonious crime via a fair trial and they are not a documented citizen. If they have been documented already, then they should not be deported.
Yes but if it is so serious then there should be a death penalty reenacted just for non-residents of Canada
Only if the serious crime is terrorism, first degree murder or any sexually violent crime/human trafficking
no they should be put into a prison in canada just like anyone else who is a canadien citizen because most of them have families kids
If we accept them as our own citizens, we should treat them as our own citizens. Justice should be blind and fair.
Only for terrorist attacks.
Yes, but they should be allowed to return again
No, they should have jail time in Canada
immigrants should not be deported even after committing serious crime because all people desereve a better life and another chance.
No, they should serve their sentence then go back to living in Canada if they are here legally.
Not necessarily, but if it is too serious then they should be.
they should justspend their time
No, as long as they serve their sentence
@nobodyspecialLiberal3yrs3Y
They should have the same treatment as Canadian citizens.
Depends on the severity of the crime. If not too serious then no, if so then we should consider it rather than doing it immediately, only then we can arrive at a decision.
It dependes about the cirscunstances, in that way its complicated have a side.
Yes, after they've finished their sentence AND if its safe to return to their country.
This should depend on the circumstances of the crime
I agree as long as they go to jail in their country.
Jail sentence, they should not be deported.
Only if it is a serious violent crime other wise no they live here too
Depends on circumstance. Every situation is different.
Depends upon the crime. What is "serious"?
yes, as long as it was a serious crime.
Yes, but only for violent crimes, ex. Murder, rape, kidnapping, etc.
It depends on the situation, if it is a crime that is committed through pure accident, no they should not. I.e Humboldt's crash.
Murder, sexual assault, terrorism. Send them back
No, they should serve time in jail as Canadian born citizens would
They shouldn't be deported, they should be treated as any other Canadian citizen and receive the appropriate punishment for the offense committed.
It depends on the crime, if someone who was born here commits the same crime and doesn't get deported that's unfair
@8SV4XVH4yrs4Y
Depends if none life threatening then no but murder or animal abuse and sexual assault on some occasions or hate crimes.
depending how serious and dangerous the crime was and the intention of the person comitting the crime
They should just go to prison at the Country they are currently in
criminals should be detained in Canada if they commit a serious crime because the countries they are deported to might not have a strict detaining system. They should be detained in Canada, then after their sentence is over, they should be deported to their home countries.
No, they should take time in prison like any other Canadian citizen.
no, they should serve their time like every citizen
If they are a Citizens then they cannot be "deported" and are entitled to serve their time under our legal system. Work visa, landed immigrants, refugees, etc... should be deported for violent premeditated crimes. The circumstances need to be considered.
no i think giving them punishment like jail for sometime is better than being deport
Yes, as long as it is safe in their own country intel then they will remain in our prison system.
No, depends of the crime they committed
Yes but after they have served there sentence and also depending on the severity of the crime
@8PZFK7Y4yrs4Y
No, immigrants that enter the country should receive the same rights as well as the same punishments as other citizens of our country.
Yes, if they have commited the serious crime as an adult and it is safe for them to return to their country
Yes, if they have not become Canadian Citizens
They should serve time if they commit a serious crime.
it depends on the severity of the crime and they are our citezens now so they should not be deported in general because this is their country too
@8P5N3XX4yrs4Y
No, but they should have to serve a prison sentence
If it is a murder or a bad crime
If they commit murder they should be deported and also serve their sentence here
No, they should be treated the same as Canadian citizens
No, but they should serve a long sentence here
It depends on what crime they committed and why they did tho.
No, they commited the crime here, they will pay the price here.
Yes, if the crime is a severe offense.
They should not because if they want to undo their mistake it's hard to in a diferent country
Yes, as long as it is safe for them to return to their country. If not, they should fid oh serving their sentence
firstly need to know the reason behind this step of criminal
I think they should just be given a life sentence no need to deport them u don’t know how there country is
We will let the court decide on the severity of the said crime.
Parque que eles não podem ser presos no país em q se encontrar?
yes, after serving their sentence and then deport them if it is safe to
No, they should be tried as a citizen of Canada would be.
If it's 1st degree murder and it's safe to return yes
No, but give their parole/release further scrutiny if they have a criminal background that warrants it.
If an immigrants commit a serious crime they should not be deported, but they should serve their sentence in Canada.
No, they should be persecuted like any other resident
depends on the crime but why should that be any different than when a person who was born here does a crime.
Yes if the crime resulted in death
Only sentence not deported unless it is really necessary
No, they should serve their sentence like everyone else
Serve a sentence just like other people who have committed a crime would do
No, unless they have not completed citizenship requirements.
it depends on the seriusness of the crime like selling information to other country knowingly
Yes, if not yet a citizen
Depending on the type of the crime
yes, if that crime is serious enough and is done shortly after entering the country
They should receive a punishment like any other citizen.
Prison, Community service
No, only if they have entered the country illegally, but they should still be sentenced.
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Yes, if they have entered the country illegally and committed a felony or felonies
