Islamic State and Liberal Government

Syrian refugees: The agency reported that someone used the passport to enter Greece on Oct. 3 with a group of refugees, but it not clear if it legitimately belonged to the gunman, according to Toronto Star. The Islamic State militant group has claimed responsibility for the attack. According to Reuters, a Syrian travel document was found near a gunman outside the Stade de France after a co-ordinated assault that left at least 129 people dead and 352 wounded. Despite those reports, the new Liberal government said Saturday it will stand firm on its election pledge to resettle 25,000 Syrian refugees. Villeneuve stressed that security would not be compromised during the resettlement process. Asked whether the government still intends to meet that target by the end of the year, as promised during the campaign, Jean-Bruno Villeneuve, a spokesman for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship told the Star in an email: The government has reiterated its commitment to resettling 25,000 Syrian refugees and more details will be released in the coming days.
