    We have homeless people here. We have a starving middle class. But who gets financial assistance?

    Palestinians should be focusing on releasing the 100 Israeli prisoners and shipping their Hamas leadership to the Hague, not backdooring into Canada.

  2. As long as they were properly vetted I have no problem with giving financial assistance to help refugees get settled.

    From the article

    “More than 4,000 applications have been accepted for processing under the temporary pathway but the federal government says only 334 people have arrived in Canada.

    Another 248 Palestinians have approved temporary resident visas or permits and would also be eligible for the assistance when they arrive in Canada.”

    I can’t believe we are doing this amidst a housing crunch, an influx of immigrants and other existing challenges already in the country.
