Finance Minister Bill Morneau and Syrian Refugee Crisis

discussion: Finance Minister Bill Morneau said that was entirely acceptable, given the terrible tragedy of the Paris attacks, and the fact that Turkey is on the front line of the Syrian refugee crisis, according to The Chronicle Herald. The discussion of refugees was always intended to be on the agenda, Morneau said Saturday night. Friday co-ordinated strikes in the French capital, which left at least 129 dead and many more wounded, threatened to overshadow the G20 economic agenda, as well as the growth and infrastructure initiatives that Trudeau planned to emphasize in his first meetings with world leaders. The discussion around the financing of terrorist activities was always intended to be on the agenda. The focus on terrorism and refugees immediately shone a spotlight on two of Trudeau key foreign policy decisions related to the war against Islamic militants and the mass migration of innocent civilians that has spawned. So I suspect that we will spend more time talking about those issues than we might have otherwise. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
