Regarding the issue of Canada accepting large numbers of Muslims immigrants, and getting them fast tracked through the system, it is necessary to know more about the situation before we jump in and accept more immigrants than our society can assimilate.
The leader of Syria and other Muslim countries in the Middle East are killing their own people, and at the same time there have been reports of the Middle East cleansing Christians from Syria and Libya.
It was reported that 21 Coptic Christians were beheaded by the Islamic State in Libya for the crime of being Christian.
The situation is so terrible, it involves torture, massacre and crucifixion. Most endangered are the Christians of Syria. Four years ago they numbered 1.1 million, but now 700,000 have fled.
Their future, like middle eastern Christianity will be determined by Iran, Hezbollah and other factions. There is a desperate need to stop the persecution of Christians in the Middle East!
Why are we so anxious to accept Muslims to our country when Christians are being ruthlessly killed in Muslim countries?
We need to assist Christians, before rushing in and accepting Muslims to come to Canada, who need to be screened, so terrorists cannot use this avenue to hide and obtain a way of entry into Canada.
