Toronto has its own poverty , homeless , vagrancy issues , have to fix those before they let more people in to add to the problem. CP24 joe_warmington canucksmith42 JoshMatlow JohnTory

Feds should foot the whole bill. If they can afford sending money to other countries they can afford spending the money here also.

Why? Toronto takes pride in being a sanctuary city.

Send them to Justin’s house.

Hamilton has enough problems with under housed, poverty and crime.

We’re full at the Inn

The woke left can open their own homes for the refugees. If they don't, they're virtue signaling frauds.

Not the Hammer... Ottawa 👍

There is a big place sitting empty right now in Ottawa cause it was not good enough for Lucifer Trudeau

You have not been to Hamilton have you? Ask Ottawa

This should be on the feds. It's their mess to begin with.

They should go to Ottawa. Drop them in Rockcliffe Park.

Maybe Ottawa would be better for that.

Send them home? Canada can't support new people. Immigration should be paused for min. 20 years

The federal government should pay 100% of the cost. They let them in.

NOPE, stop bringing them in until there is a plan to house and integrate them in to society.

I think Ottawa should be forced to shelter ALL the refugees.

Why are we taking in “new comers” we cannot afford… anywhere?

send them to Ottawa or Quebec with all their transfer payments

No, no, and no.

How about Ottawa?
