Oh. Left freaks about Harper not wanting media... but ok when JT visits a known terrorist spawning ground and doesn't want media in on the meeting. gotcha

lefties hate math as much as facts

Dude, do you even math? For ease, 1,000,000 Syrian refugees. Fair? I won't double check your numbers, but trust you did due diligence. Fair? To err on your side, we'll say 600,00 men, 400,000 women. Fair? Global statistics claim that if every Syrian woman lived to end of child bearing years, they would have, on average, 2.6 children per year. Instead of rounding up, as is normal, I'll round down. 2 children per woman. We've agreed that there are 400,000 women refugees, yes? Say half that have fled are have maxxed out their child bearing years? That would be 200,000 women, with an average of 2 children per women. That would equal 400,000 children, yes yes? 400,000, women, 400,000 children. There should be 800,000 women and children, and 200,000 men, give or take, in this refugee crisis. Clearly, women and children make up over 75% of the Syrian population, and should make up over 75% of the refugee population, unless of course they stayed behind to fight ISIL and al-Assad. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2127.html

Really? Men escape war zones and impending death, leaving the women, children and elderly behind? Where are you from? What man would do that? No one I know would flee, leaving his wife and children behind. There is one word, and one word only for that man. Coward.

lol. Hyperbole much? Nowhere have I read or seen pics of these magically disappearing dying women and children. Also, you support Waldo in his denunciation of any cite. The one you posted is less than worthy, though even they admit that only a third are women and children...but but they make up 2/3 of the possible population but but where are the parents but but... I never said ISIL was coming , that was you. I said I want refugees to go through the refugee process. That is what it is for. If you want to circumvent our laws and institutions whenever it suits you, you are nothing more than an anarchist.

sigh Canada is broken? The highest regarded country in the world is broken? Damn, I better get packed and head to Somalia.

"From 2009 to 2013, Canada gave refugee status to 122,518 people. That's an average of 24,514 people in each year --- 67 per day." More than enough. As per immigration: "In particular, why has Canada’s average 250,000 per year immigration intake remained in place for over 24 years, a clear abnormality in Canada’s immigration history? The answer is that for many decades, Canada’s major political parties have assumed that, on the immigration issue in particular, they know better than average Canadians. This attitude and the promotion of political party self-interest manifested itself particularly in 1990 when one political party (the Progressive Conservatives) increased immigration levels to 250,000 per year." Those damn Conservatives. And yes, how dare the government clamp down on bogus claims, you know, from eastern European strippers. http://o.canada.com/news/national/asylum-claims-down-by-more-than-half-in-2013

This country isn't broken.

It's not the right thing to do. That is your opinion. If they are legitimate refugees, having gone through refugee process, welcome.

lol What the ef has this to do with elections? Why is questioning anything considered an attack? You are claiming having cell phones is the most important thing in their lives, keeping them alive. I am stating you are wrong. I think they should have their wives, kids, but you want to turn it into cell phones being the issue. Clearly, the issue is if they were real refugees, fleeing their home and country because they were afraid of being murdered, they would have grabbed their children and wives, mothers, father, sisters, instead of their cell phones. Why so many angry young men with cell phones.

And what do you mean, not the luxury item they are in Canada? What, their very lives depend on the fact they have cell phones? Here I thought their lives were dependant on getting the hell out of a war zone and into a country that would support them.

If things were so dire they needed to flee their home and country, the last thing they should have packed is their effing cell phone, and maybe grabbed their wives and kids instead.

What? I don't agree we just take 25,000 people from another country due to pressure from the left. We have refugee processes for legitimate refugees, and there is concern many are not legitimate. Due to this stance, the left declares I am a nationalist racist? Uh, bullshit. btw, I didn't coin the racist term, Waldo, then yourself did.

lol Hard to take refugees seriously when they have something I don't have.

Clearly, ad hom. Clearly inaccurate. Clearly drivel from the left. Where have we heard this racist crap before whenever someone doesn't agree with the left agenda?

Of course they can. When 75% of them are young, fighting age men, you do have to wonder where the women and children are though, don't you? Seriously, can you agree to this very obvious, and I'll be kind, anomaly?

No, religion and culture drives conservatism. conservatism is healthy when religion and culture is healthy. Clearly, Muslim religion and culture is not healthy. Well, for, you know, women, gays, infidels, non-believers, apostates....ppl like that

What? Now your are accusing them of not being able to read or spread their religion, or mistakenly using religion? Ok, you got me on the mistakenly using part. Lot less murder and mayhem if more of them couldn't understand the Qu'ran

lol no, religion and culture is what makes everything godawful The conservative aspect of this is they propagate their religion and culture.
