Canadians open their pocketbooks for Syrian refugees
‘They are people who have no place to go’
The federal government requires the groups provide $30,000 for a small family, and many of the privately formed groups have been going beyond that in recognition that that figure may not be enough to provide for four or five people during a 12-month period.
The group in Hubbards began in a church hall in the small community on the province’s south shore with the goal of sponsoring one family, and has been fundraising with community meals and art shows.
Susy MacGillivray of the Bay Refugee Project said in an email that donations of $1,000, $2,000 and $5,000 have flowed in, helping lift the group beyond its original expectations.
“We have raised enough to sponsor two families and may well have enough to sponsor a third. We have turned our focus from fundraising to settlement,” she said in an email.

Trump should have said he was going to get Canada to pay for a wall....
Why would the Canadians consider paying for their neighbour's paranoid delusions?
FACT: There have been a lot more terrorists entering the US from Canada than Mexico.
Another histrionic fact free "fact" from the overheated imaginations of some Americans.
John McCain Warns ISIS Terrorists May Cross Canadian Border
This is not the first time McCain has raised concerns about the security of the Canadian border. In 2009, he repeated the falsehood that some of the 9/11 hijackers entered the U.S. from Canada and defended then-homeland security secretary Janet Napolitano for asserting the same. Napolitano later apologized and admitted she was mistaken.
The head of "Homeland Security" gets it wrong? Seriously?
McCain's warnings about Canada come after the publication of a video that allegedly shows a man dressed as an ISIS terrorist successfully entering the United States by crossing Lake Erie from Canada. The video was produced by James O'Keefe, a well-known conserative activist who has been criticized for using deceptive editing in his videos.
Making stuff up seems to have become the national pastime for both the activist right and left.
Anyways, another longstanding American tradition:

Histrionic paranoia about peaceful civilized neighbours such as Canada,
while giving the barbaric supporters and financiers of 9/11 a free pass and invading Iraq in response only demonstrates what a complete joke is the so-called US "War on Terror".
As surreal as the US policy towards China up the establishment of the PRC.
May the gods preserve and defend me from self-righteous altruists; I can defend myself from my enemies and my friends.
