Yes, we need to have a place for refugees but if the average Canadian understood the sheer numbers involved globally in claiming status amongst the various foreign posts worldwide - USA, Canada, UK, Australia...etc. it would boggle the mind. I worked at a consulate in the Middle East for a number of years. There is absolutely no way extreme vetting can occur. The numbers are simply against the West. We cannot keep pace. On top of which, so many come with no documents and only stories....the need is incomprehensible. The money and will to do it properly is merely a PR game. Quotas are set. Locally engaged staff are hired at the lowest rate possible and buttons are pushed on computer screens. Canada's contribution so far is merely a grain of sand and it boils my blood the mileage the Liberal government is squeezing out of the few that we have helped. The pressure needs to be placed on these failed regimes to get their act together. The West can only help so much.
