What if cdn election happened after the attacks?

Sorry to make this political so soon after. But what if our election had been this Monday instead? Would Trudeau's Love thy terrorist/refugee message backfire, and Harper's Face covering message have been received in a different way?

Makes one wonder if these terrorists have any strategy or organization at all. Why would you attack a Western European country while the world is busy deciding what to do with hundreds of thousands of Muslim refugees? Didn't they just shoot themselves in the foot, if their purpose is to bring more Muslims into the western world. Poland already closed their border to refugees after this event, won't be the last.

I see Freewheat already brought this up in the other thread.

And for the record, I believe that most of the refugees truly are innocent people fleeing for their lives. Imagine facing the choice that most of them are. Choosing to leave everything behind, spend your life savings to take your family on an extremely dangerous journey to an uncertain future in a place where you're likely not welcome. Knowing that many will die in the process. says a lot about the alternative of staying behind. No doubt there will be bad apples, I wouldn't want the job of deciding who is genuine and who isn't. Imagine personally telling thousands of families who have fled the atrocities of ISIS that we are sending them back because one of them could be a terrorist. Sounds simple and easy when you are posting on an anonymous forum from the comfort of a warm safe isolated farm house.

There's a reason we have a warm safe house. The Nazis also tried to rule the world.

Another question,,,, why is Saskatchewan getting 10% of the refugees?? 2500 headed here. They should be shared amongst the provinces and territories that didn't vote blue. This can't really be happening! Time for a divorce ,

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Samhill. agree completely. Decisions we make and our ancestors have a lot to do with it. But to be fair, do you want the job of personally meeting the refugees, and telling them who can stay(if any) and who can go back and face ISIS? I don't want Canada to accept any either, but that doesn't make the problem go away.

Maybe the Blue Area should GET All the refugees.
It was the Cons Idea to join in the Bombing fun in libya ,iraq and syria.

Don't bomb if you don't want to take refugees.

Antartica has lots of room.

[GOODRUM]

The blue zone can't win an election alone, don't think we deserve to take all the heat on that one,
But it's obvious who wanted the last 25000 .

[bucket]

Send them to the empty cities in China.

The government there will know how to deal with them.

[burnt]

How many have you signed up to take, mustardman? Riders?

[Oliver88]

Sounds like one of the terrorists was a recent refugee to Greece from Syria!!

The drama teacher better back off his plan for 25,000 by Christmas!!

[sumdumguy]

They should be allocated according to population, just like federal seats. It's only fair.
