If they came from the US, they are NOT refugees. They crossed the border illegally. Not sure why so many people don't seem to understand the definition of illegal.
Are you aware that there are currently 73 communities in Canada that are under a boil water advisory? Some have been under an advisory for a few years, at least one has been for 20 years.
How is it we have allllll this money for the third world and/or their denizens but we have f*ck all to take care of our own third world problems we have right here? Can someone answer that? Because I'd just love to hear the rationale behind it.

Maybe cause the stats show that immigrants to Canada are more likely to start their own business then Canadian born.

Everything I have read indicates that they are indeed refugees....AMERICAN refugees. As I stated above, under the U.S.-Canada Safe Third Party Agreement refugees who arrive in the U.S. must make their claim there.They are crossing the border illegally, but unfortunately under our rules the moment they step on Canadian soil they are allowed to claim refugee status. Their claim will undoubtedly be rejected due to the fact they crossed illegally and violated the Safe Third Party Agreement, but while their claim works its way through the system, they will likely fall off the radar and they will enjoy an extended stay in Canada.

Trudeau needs to get on top of this, these people aren't fleeing civil war or persecution. My suggestion would be to pick them up on this side of the border, make sure they are safe, warm, and healthy, then put them on a bus and deliver them to the nearest official border crossing so they can try their luck getting into the country through legitimate and legal means.

Actually most of those risking the crossing fear being deported from the US back to their own country where they do face civil war and prosecution.

One thing I have noticed frequenting fast food joints, immigrants almost invariable have a good attitude and work ethic. Most of our own people do as well, but there's often a couple of them who shouldn't be there as they don't give one the impression they need the job. :)

Are you really that thick? Gov't employees are allowing it and they work in his jurisdiction. He's ultimately responsible! :) :)
There is no Canadian 'law'perse, on accepting Refugees but there is a legal process which determines if the qualify to stay, or be brought in from outside the country.

They are claiming refugee status as sanctioned by The UN Charter to which Canada is a participant to which binds Canada, regardless of it's the Libs, Cons or NDP in power to legally uphold the International laws.

The 1951 Refugee Convention is the key legal document that forms the basis of our work. Ratified​ by 145 State parties, it defines the term ‘refugee’ and outlines the rights of the displaced, as well as the legal obligations of States to protect them.

The core principle is non-refoulement, which asserts that a refugee should not be returned to a country where they face serious threats to their life or freedom. This is now considered a rule of customary international law.

UNHCR*- The 1951 Refugee Convention


UNHCR serves as the ‘guardian’ of the 1951 Convention and its 1967 Protocol. According to the legislation, States are expected to cooperate with us in ensuring that the rights of refugees are respected and protected.

The Canadian refugee system has two main parts:

  • the Refugee and Humanitarian Resettlement Program, for people seeking protection from outside Canada; and
  • the In-Canada Asylum Program for people making refugee protection claims from within Canada

  • Canada offers refugee protection to some people in Canada who fear persecution or who would be in danger if they had to leave. Some dangers they may face include torture, a risk to their life or a risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment. If you feel you could face one of these risks if you go back to your home country or the country where you normally live, you may be able to seek protection in Canada as a refugee.

Its about f'in time we started focusing on Yazidis, the way the Militants had their way with them and with how Iraq society treats them in general, its nothing short of a miracle that they still exist today.

This was originally a conservative motion, from the same conservatives who wanted to include all religions in the recent motion that was debated on in parliament. That should speak volumes that maybe the decepti-cons might not actually be that racist as Liberal MP's slander them as being.

My beef is what corruption were the liberals talking about when they originally started drafting a plan to bring them here. In a country where they are an extreme minority, it wasn't Yazidi corruption that prevented them from coming here earlier. Makes you wonder why that same corruption didnt stop us from taking muslims mostly the first time around from this region.

And we didn't acknowledge the genocide officially till last year? Really, i was talking about that **** years before it was formally recognized. It took a conservative motion for the liberals to formally realize the atrocities happening to the Yazidis?, and then they turn around and call the conservatives party racist? Come on...

Vagenda Of Manocide | 21stgoddamncentury: If your job can be taken by...

21stgoddamncentury:

If your job can be taken by a hypothetical unskilled, non-English-speaking illegal immigrant or outsourced worker, I’m going to give you some bad advice.

I’m going to give you the same bad advice you gave millennials: stop whining, you’re not entitled to anything and nobody owes you a job.

I’m going to give you the same bad advice you gave minimum wage workers: stop being lazy. Get a skill. work harder and you’ll move up.

I’m going to give you the same bad advice you gave sexual assault victims: you should have made better choices and this wouldn’t have happened to you.

And when you find that this advice is not helpful or even true, then instead of attacking your fellow worker, the one who’s willing to work for less than a legal wage to feed his family, maybe you should go after the structures of power that allow and incentivize your employer’s choice to relocate your job.

This is amazing

Is it true that they get one year's government support to get settled and learn our ways? Good for them, they can just fool around for a year and make more babies, as if a dozen just isn't enough

How about we ship you over to Syria for awhile.........see how you do in a strange land without benefit of knowing the language and customs. Just might wake you up to the fact that these people need our help and the vast majority of us are more than willing to give it.
