OMG…what about Canadian homeless and poor?
What do you do other than bring them up when you post.
just be grateful its only 20,000. USA imports over 100,000 every month and has been since 1970
CA govt : Keep sleep on streets and beg foods 🤷
@steve ofsteve 30 plus years of social services work and volunteering FYI
@steve ofsteve
why not open your palace and welcome all Afghanistans to live with your as you’re such a benevolent billionaire 😄
What about the two Michaels? Free my guys
i pay enough taxes
Diversity is our strength…and …stuff
Toxic diversity is our weakness clearly. This is war.
@Link Hawk and they are our allies
Awesome. Why don’t you apologize for not taking in a million while you’re at it?
Well, isn’t that a conveniently timed distraction…
How many interpreters did Canadian military work with that would justify bringing in 20,000+ Afghans?!
20,000? USA takes in more than 20,000 immigrants legally every week
Well considering how we sacrificed soldiers to help protect them, the least we could do to our allies is offer a place to live and protection
40,000 Canadian troops served in Afghanistan. There are currently about 160 front line soldiers there. Assuming one interpreter for every 10 soldiers you arrive at approximately 4,000. Assume each has 4 family members: wife and 3 children, and you have 20,00. Though the Taliban are moving so fast it’s unlikely many of them will get to Canada. Trudeau is just pretending to do something, too little and too late.
“Canada imports guerilla warfare”
drain of resources
Seems real popular.
Thats a laugh.
We can’t even get our own troops to and from without Americans or commercial private companies.
wtf is there not one country on the way thats safe. Like most countrys in europe. ARE THEY WALKING .like theres lgbt afgans.
Who is paying for their healthcare, housing when they get here?
We do… do you not get how this works? Do you no idea how they contribute to our economy??
What the f is wrong with this government? Just STOP!
WTF what about our own country.
Lol they get into the UK by Dinghy, crossing the English channel .. Canada just flys them in !!
At this point its very likely most won’t get out. The taliban is literally sweeping across the country more and more each day
