The NDP has consistently advocated for the rights of immigrants and refugees, regardless of their religion.

No, banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional

The NDP strongly supports the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which guarantees freedom of religion and prohibits discrimination based on religion. They have consistently opposed policies that target specific religious groups, such as the Quebec government's Bill 62 in 2017, which targeted Muslim women wearing face coverings.

No, but we should ban immigrants from “high risk” countries

The NDP has not advocated for banning immigrants from specific countries, as they believe in a fair and inclusive immigration system. However, they have called for improvements to the refugee screening process to ensure public safety. In 2015, the NDP's public safety critic, Randall Garrison, called for increased resources for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) to improve its ability to screen refugees.

Yes, until terrorist attacks decrease

The NDP would likely disagree with this statement, as they have consistently opposed policies that discriminate against immigrants based on their religion or ethnicity. They have also emphasized the importance of addressing the root causes of terrorism, such as poverty and political instability, rather than focusing solely on immigration restrictions.

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

The NDP has not advocated for a complete ban on immigration, as they believe in a fair and inclusive immigration system. They have called for improvements to the immigration and refugee screening process to ensure public safety, but they have not supported policies that would halt immigration entirely.
