It's something you need to know when reading Congressional sources. A "report of the Congress" or Senate is vetted and approved by the whole body. A report from a committee is vetted and approved by that committee, which means representatives or senators from both parties. Always look for whether there's a "minority report." That means the report was railroaded through by the majority party over the objections of the minority party. You can only get the full story by reading the report and the minority report.

The "report" of a single member, chairman or otherwise, is pure political crap. It is the opinion of that member.

Don't pay it no mind, gerryh. Consider the sources.

First, there's the "report." Note what it says in the article: "A new report from the Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee. . ." That's a favorite trick down hereabouts. This is not a report from the Senate. It's not a report from the Senate Homeland Security Committee. It's a report from "the Chairman." In other words, its the bigoted yapping of one right-wing senator. He had his staff gin up this "report," and he's trying to pass it off as work of the Senate.

Second, Boomster's downloading this from "CIJ News." I checked, and it's a slobbering, terrified anti-Muslim website. Perfect forum for a shrieking anti-Muzzie "report" from a U.S. bigot.

So all the slobbering, terrified anti-Muzzie bigots in Canada will take it as Gospel. But it's just a big political "position paper," playing to the slobbering, terrified anti-Muzzie bigots that vote for Sen. Johnson.

Soooo all the non-Muslim Arabic people that came here to get the hell away from the Islamic nonsense are slobbering, terrified anti-Muzzie bigots too? Or does that label only apply to Whitey?

Your style is just so Gerryhesque.
What work? Grabbing land? Ripping kids from their families and throwing them in residential schools? Transferring Inuit North of home? Passing the Chinese Exclusion Act? Putting Japanese Canadians in camps? Taking away the right of German and Ukrainian Canadians to educate their kids in their languages after they'd already established the schools? Excluding everyone else from the B&B Commission?

And to think they never contributed to the hard work of nation building. For shame!
That was the doings of Brits. They treated everybody who wasn't British like sh-t white or red, brown, black or yellow and everybody else did the "work" building Canada.

Well the people in America that let the San Bernardeno terrorists
into their country wants to lecture Canada? Oh i forgot they also
let the 9/11 folks in as well
Most of the people coming to Canada in the first round as I understand
it are Armenians and Kurds. Now there may be some who are Muslim
true but they are not to be feared.
Think about this terrorists coming here to do harm have Visas and
passports and they can be here in less than a day Why would they
spend nearly two years in a refugee camp?
Besides many are leaving to escape the violence not create more of it.
America is a nation paralyzed by fear instead of reaching out like they
did in past decades

It applies to Boomster. And you if you want to take it on.

Nothing to say about the shell-game of the opinion of a single senator claiming to be a "report?"

Nah, didn't think so.

I was a tad taken aback when I read this....."provides immigrant visas to individuals who pose a significant threat" Just who has Canada provided with visas that fall into this category? Anyone?

No, who we allow into our country is none of your business. Who you allow into YOUR country is your business.


as for 9/11, did you bother reading what I actually said? Didn't think so.

Tell you what, when your politicians stop blaming the US for YOUR gun problems, then we will mind our own business.

If that's what they need to do to secure their borders, then fine. If they are that paranoid about it, then I have no problem with it. I'm just tired of hearing some American politician or bureaucrat blaming their security problems on Canada.

One quick question, how many people killed in Canada by terrorists in the last 10 years compared to the u.s.?

Keep bringing in refugees and you'll be swallowing your foot real fast.

Canadian Stupidity? Helping out families displaced by a war that the west is actively involved in is stupidity? Well, if that's the case, then colour me stupid and obviously the americans were never our "friends" in the first place.

Of course, it's always the big bad imperialistic west, it's never anybody from the east, they're all saints.

It applies to Boomster. And you if you want to take it on.
Cool, thanks. Can I be an anti-Christian and anti-Hebrew bigot too? Please? Or is it religious bigotry just when it's aimed at Muslims?

Nah, didn't think so.
Whoa, slow down kemosabe, you're being intolerant of his opinion. That's not very PC of you.

Tell you what, when your politicians stop blaming the US for YOUR gun problems, then we will mind our own business.
Tell you what, when the ILA finally stops lobbying OUR govt and interfering with OUR elections, we'll stop blaming you for the gun problem in Canada. I other words, mind your own goddam business. US Constitutional laws do NOT apply here.

Always gotta blame someone else


Keep bringing in refugees and you'll be swallowing your foot real fast.

Of course I will.

Still blaming others. You really have a problem accepting responsibility, don't not you.
