What we've been doing so far has worked out wonderfully, we've saved tens of thousands of people from war, the people have integrated themselves into society, and there hasn't been any problems from them. Canada has been extremely selective in who we take in and it's clearly been working out just fine. He's basically just saying "Well hey, instead of applying for refugee status in the US, you can try applying here instead. Next time we take in people (If we ever do) you might get in." Keyword being try. |

A number of them live in my building and have not caused a single problem. I see them on the bus whenever I'm on it and they have not caused a single problem. We're doing a pretty good job at screening, and getting them integrated into our society. |

"Sarmad Assali told CNN she wished she had been able to speak with them, since she would have told them to stay until she could arrive with her attorney." sounds like incompetence on the part of the "authorities." I don't know if they've outright claimed religious persecution, but they should definitely be considered. |
