Trudeau’s ambitious Syrian refugees pledge unrealistic

[Locutus]

TORONTO — In the federal election campaign, Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party made a bold promise if elected: 25,000 refugees from Syria would be admitted to Canada by next January.

“Canada can and should be directly doing more,” Trudeau said recently, repeating the election refrain.

But a veteran Toronto immigration lawyer says admitting 25,000 refugees is an ambitious agenda he doesn’t believe is possible.

“There is no government that could have made such a promise except in a heated election period, ” Guidy Mamann told Global News on Thursday.

“This is not a plan, this is an announcement that needs a solution.

It is a dangerous plan to allow 25,000 refugees into Canada. I'm astonished at the naivety of Canadians and of Trudeau in particular who should know better.
Canadians should bone up on history and read Nonie Darwish's books. Ms. Darwish was born in Cairo, Egypt and knows what she is talking about. She exposes the evils of Islam from first hand experience.
Studying Islamic history makes clear the intent of Muslims to convert the world to Islam by killing or converting 'infidels' or taking those who refuse to convert as slaves.
It's all there in history, in the Quran and in Ms. Darwish's books, folks. There is a very real probability that the attack started years ago with the massive immigration of Mid-easterners to Western societies and the refugee crisis is a final move which will launch the battle to destroy our freedoms.

Nonie Darwish's book along with "A God Who Hates" by the Syrian lady Wafa Sultan should be required reading for this new government. These two opened my eyes to the mindset of the middle east, and to how naive I was.

Why is it any surprise that most election promises - from any side - are just the hot air voters want to hear?

Harper got elected on the pledge of eliminating the long gun registry. And he did.

The 25,000 is probably a number that NATO is demanding as a way to get the 'moderate rebels' out of Syria. They are 'moderate rebels' so Canadians have no reason to fear them just like Syrians had no need to fear them after we trained them.

There is no need to fear immigrants and refugees from Muslim countries..... yeah, right. https://www.google.ca/?gws_rd=ssl#q=germany+muslim+rape

But we trained these ones so they will leave that part at the door, . . . right? It isn't like we couldn't house them in prisons should they resist assimilation.

 

[coldstream]

I don't think 25000 is an unrealistic figure. I would put a priority on Syrian Christians, and families.. who like Christian communities throughout the Middle East have faced vicious persecution which even an end to the Civil War and eradication of ISIS will not alleviate. This way would also limit the potential import of Islamic terrorism in the guise of immigration.

Yeah, a couple months (I am being generous) of primer will overcome
hundreds of years of societal conditioning. eeeeeyeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, right

Anyways, I do have compassion for those people. I understand that about half the country's population is either refugee or displaced. Perhaps if all civilians were moved out and the country is carpet bombed? Al Asad is Alawi (a fanatic of Shai sect) - freakin lunatic.

Perhaps you missed but our style now is to bomb the place while the civilians are still there. Good luck in explaining that to the ones who lost most of their family. The wars only came with our 'interventions' so your summation doesn't fit the reality, it does fit the lies promoted by the West though. I thought living in Canada was supposed to open your eyes rather than close them so you accept the 'feel good' version out government promotes. We reap what we sow in this case.

No, I did not miss it.

What summation? You should really read ALL the words I post.

I never realized MOST was such difficult term. What was the trade-off (aside from honest and open transparency)

Nothing will convince the bleeding hearts who insist that Islam is 'the religion of peace' of the danger our precious freedoms are in!.
I think the incredible numbers of refugees invading the western countries is a Trojan Horse.
Another book worth reading if there's anybody who hasn't or who hasn't seen the movie, is "Not Without My Daughter".

I have to admit I judged this as being from the loonie-bin and not worth commenting on. Was it the most important part of your post.

As with all things Liberal it's the thought that counts, regardless of the outcome.

Because doing the right thing, doesn't sell as well.

. . . and it usually a bit more expensive in the short run and way more expensive in the long run.

It is easy to understand how people can be naïve about Islam. As Canadians we don't assume that millions of people can doggedly follow an evil religion. There are weird sects from time to time like the WBC crop up but their followers are not in such enormous numbers and even the WBC's people do not kill others who don't belong.
When millions upon millions of people subscribe to a religion that preaches hate, misogyny, murder and rape of little children there has to be something wrong with those people.
We Westerners can have any religion we please or no religion at all; our freedom guarantees that. But Muslims, born Muslims cannot renounce the religion. The penalty for that in Islamic countries is death.
So yes, people who haven't taken the time to study it will be naïve about Islam. Many innocent people even convert, believing the recruiters who say it is peaceful.
I think it is important to spread the idea of studying it closely because I believe it endangers our freedoms. Trouble is, those who are naïve think we are just fear mongering and don't bother following up. Very sad!

Perhaps you missed the word "perhaps". It was a key word in a suggestion (and one meant in humour at that) not a "summation", twit.
