That sort of logic is what created this situation - fleeing a country instead of staying and attempting to fix it.
Hate is a strong word. I don't hate all these people - but I *am* concerned with the large percentage of potentially radical Islamists amongst them that could have a very detrimental impact on our society on a number of levels.
At the same time, I despise a government that freely hands over all the funding and benefits to these "refugees" at the expense of budget cuts to our own people. As a military vet myself, I also work alongside fellow retired (and semi-retired) vets on a daily basis - many of whom are fuming over the current funding of these Syrians.
Canada's "compassion" seems rather displaced as of late.
