Canada's new progressive Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Twitter that Canada will receive the first group of 25,000 Syrian refugees on Thursday.
John McCallum, the immigration, refugee, and citizenship minister, assured citizens the refugees will wait in line just like everyone else. "We do have to be careful that the refugees not be seen to queue jump," he explained. “I don't think it would be popular among those who have been waiting too long if refugees come in and suddenly go to the front of the line."
Canada's population of 35 million is one-sixth of the United States's population of 310 million. So Trudeau's 25,000 migrants would be equivalent to 150,000 Syrians arriving in the United States.
After he won the election, Trudeau promised to accept 25,000 Syrian refugees before 2016. He aims to keep his campaign promises. "Canadians get it, that this is about doing the right thing, it is about living up to the values that we cherish as a country and it is also an extraordinary way to continue to grow our country," he said.

1/6? Common Core math apparently.
“”Canadians get it, that this is about doing the right thing, it is about living up to the values that we cherish as a country and it is also an extraordinary way to continue to grow our country,”
Translation: We cannot wait for our dhimmi status to be confirmed!
You can bet the first thing he’ll do is welcome them for the cameras and then tell them to go south and don’t stop.
Any doubts the bulk of those savage animals will end up in the US..
Jihad is here.
Jihad is the core of islam.
Sorry but our Canadian friends in the Great White North have made the same mistake that our countrymen have made. Voted in an incurable leftist POS.
After appointing that loon Omar Alghabra to be Parliamentary Secretary to the foreign minister, I can only expect it’s going to get much worse.
“In his campaign he promised to accept 25,000 Syrian refugees.”
He campaigned on this? What is the benefit exactly?
Another group of Cities added to my “no visit” list.
“...Canada will receive the first group of 25,000 Syrian refugees on Thursday.”
THEN, they can just stroll across the non-existant border to kill Americans. Nice
“San Bernardino-style assault in Canada, the illustrious ‘new Trudeau’ government will fall.”
I don’t think so, Canada is too far gone left, especially Ontario.
Trudeau has that 1000 mile stare and is following in the footsteps of his Hero Obama
*He campaigned on this? What is the benefit exactly?*
Canadians love to top up their sanctimony tanks. *We*re not racists!*
Trudeau is the coolest of all the cool kids - you*re a weirdo if you don*t admire him and all his cool friends.
It*s all about moral status signalling.
*If it wasn*t for Donald Trump, there wouldn*t be any ISIS and stuff...*
I know, I was just being rhetorical. I was born in Toronto.
They still, to this day, talk of their hatred of George Bush. Their heads will explode if Trump is elected.
For people who pride themselves on being reserved and polite I have always found to be the exact opposite. They boast on how the rest of the world view Canadians. They openly discuss politics and assume everyone complies to their thoughts. They belittle the U.S. in casual conversation constantly. Meanwhile the Province of Quebec wants to separate from Canada and has enforced French only speaking and street signs. Where does this sense of superiority come from?
Quebeckers don*t really feel themselves part of the Orwellian Ingsoc Establishment in Canada, even though they seem to cluster at court.
That may well save them in the long run, in terms of existing as a people...
