But in Canada's case, our own Government is mandating a policy that will see the entire process rushed for no logical reason other than to keep an election promise.

France and Germany won't be operating the Rafale and Eurofighter until the 2050-60s.......the French have already retired ~10 of their oldest Rafales and the British will begin retiring their tranche I Typhoons in 2018.

Ok, but ISIS has been quite clear, months ago, that they have placed members among refugees and here we are......

Good point, if one is intent on blowing themselves up, what do they care, if after the fact, authorities easily determine who they are.....

The Trudeau Government should place the horse before the cart: Such needs, as determined by the RCAF nearly 20 years ago, in the decades ahead can only be met by the F-35. Altering said determination is purely a political exercise...........No Cadillac 'elicopters fighter aircraft.

Apparently not.

Where did I suggest that? My position is quite clear, we shouldn't rush the process, when said refugees are safe in camps in Southern Europe, putting our own national security at risk, so Trudeau can keep a political promise.

Perfect, one of the Paris attackers was processed by the UN on the 3rd of October in Greece, allowed to move onto Serbia and Austria (where he was further processed by the UN) and onto France..........lets put our national security into the hands of the UN and NGOs......

Brilliant!!! One of the Paris attackers went through a refugee camp in Greece just over a month ago..........lets settle them in Canada, then sort them out.

Exactly, of the 25000 refugees, we need only miss in our screening 0.1% to result in a ~ 25 member ISIS Trojan Horse.

Exactly..........for example, there are countless Canadian companies (now not busy with the downturn in oil) that convert (in as little as several days for some units) international shipping containers into livable shelters, with everything from sleeping units, washrooms to kitchens.......

No, its clearly not: I want to know how a process that the GoC states can take upwards of 36 months can be compressed to ~6-7 weeks, safely, with the knowledge that said claims are coming from a war zone and that ISIS (as evident in Paris) has included its members within the exodus of refugees.

Exactly, and that is an ongoing problem the British are dealing with on their military bases in Cyprus, where a small number of refugees that got into the base are now demanding to be resettled in the UK (with welfare too boot), under threat of a hunger strike.....

Yes it does though, you suggested giving into fear changes us, resulting in us all becoming victims.........that suggests we are collectively stupid. Inversely, taking unnecessary risks with our national security, for no logical reason, is risky, doubly so with the recent events in Paris.......As I said, there is no logical reason as to why we have to rush the screening process for refugees, doing so isn't abating fear, its giving into the reckless ego of a politician.

Ahh no, I don't think many in our society would think it prudent to rush in refugees from the Middle East, in the days and weeks after a terror attack, launched by a group that placed its members among said refugees.......that is just ignorant, and there is no logical reasons as to why we have to compromise our own security by rushing the process to allow Trudeau to keep a political promise.

Tell that to the victims of Islamic terrorism..

Fill your boots, but in the real World, there is no reset button or do-overs. The Trudeau Government's intent is dangerous, for no other purpose than to feed his ego.

Wait and see what? A Paris style attack in Montreal, Toronto or Vancouver?

No, when the very Government department's website that will process the refugees states, on average the process takes 36 months, and Trudeau's political pandering will either force a compression to ~7 weeks, it is clear corners will be cut..........some have suggested we just take in women and children to speed up the process, or men with families etc........but that too is ignorant, as ISIS has female members, one of the Paris attackers was 15 years old and one of the named attackers had a wife and young daughter..........there goes that work around. The alternative, we bring them here and concentrate them in camps under guard.........but then, why would be bring people into this country that we have to keep locked up for our own safety? No, there is no strategy, there was a promise made during an election and nothing more.

More refugees isn't the problem, slashing the process in screening said refugees, coming from a war zone, of which ISIS itself has stated they have members among (and was confirmed in Paris) for political expediency is.

He was already in Canada, and entered the United States by taking the MV Coho ferry from here on Southern Vancouver Island......

Why is "musing about such things" not helpful? And helpful to whom? Trudeau? In light of recent events, if they aren't already, more Canadians should be questioning the prospect of rushing the screening and security process of 25000 refugees that will be slashed by the Liberal Government.......The one Paris attacker, that came in through a Greek camp, was processed in early October of this year. In reference to the United States, I clearly spoke to the American response, which would pay little heed to Canada in determining its response to a terrorist attack, launched through Canada and fostered by the Trudeau Liberals political pandering and bid to keep an inane promise.

Exactly, and one can only imagine the fallout of a Paris style attack in a large US city, from "refugees" that springboard across the 49th.

I didn't make up the prospect of foreign born terrorists using Canada as a springboard to launch a terrorist attack within the United States.........that of course is historic fact.

When a single polar bear attack kills and injures hundreds of people let me know.........In the interim, perhaps you should string together some maturity.
