Justin Trudeau and Security Implications

: Recent polls have found that the public is deeply split on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ambitious plan to grant asylum to so many in the coming weeks, according to Toronto Star. Roughly 50 per cent of those surveyed disapprove, most of them citing the tight year-end deadline. But we aren’t blind to the security implications of bringing 25,000 Syrian refugees into the country on very short notice.

That said, there broad agreement — just under 60 per cent in one poll — that there a security risk to be managed. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
