Met my 3rd Syrian refugee family here in Canada...

And am now looking into sponsoring one (very early on, willing to purchase apartment and support for first 12 months as required possibly longer (with gov subsidies of course). Will seek coworkers and community support as I look into it more for 2018) . I know 2017 applications have stopped but looking into the future.

All 3 families have been great and forever grateful for the opportunity they've been given. The latest one had 2 daughters with injuries from a rocket strike. One family seemed less westernized while the other 2 had kids that speak English and parents learning. Anyways, I know I'll get flack on here but speaking to a family with two daughters (I have a daughter) really hit home. Hard to imagine living somewhere where you watch planes fly overhead all day and wonder which one will drop a bomb and where it will strike, but you have no option to go anywhere to avoid it.


Well that's my ramble, come at me bros.

This last family was just a dad and his two little girls. He said it was hard to understand why so many people wanted to help him and his family. Very gracious and seemed like a great dad. I can't comment on that Edmonton case but is there a charge or is this just hearsay? (Not defending, just wondering). I used to live in Edmonton and there is a lot of racism and bigotry so seems plausible this is fake (and plausible that it's real).

Also inb4 stupid analogies like, "would you eat a bowl of skittles if one of them was poisoned?"

Or, you could just help some of the needy that currently ARE citizens that HAVE been paying taxes.

I just lol when someone thinks they are doing a good deed while neglecting problems in their immediate surroundings, for years at a time.

Following Trudeau's great leadership. Good on you, Canada. You're free now to be the worlds most supreme pussies because you know if you get attacked by a real country, we have to help you out by default.

I look forward to you setting landspeed records in the SJW world Olympics over the next few years

Not sure if srs. Can also understand why Americans might be more wary since they have much more direct impact in killing civilians in Syria and the hate can be more real (not saying what is justified or not, just that I can respect your caution).

1st generation will be grateful for your help, 2nd one will think that Syria is the best place in the world and will fight the urge to rape and murder your daughters daily for not being covered in potato sack. The west and the infidels will be the reason for all of their problems and pain in life.

No sympathy for the stupid.

dont see why it took you meeting a bunch of foreigners to suddenly gain some compassion, there's people in need of help in every major city in the world that you could've been helping the whole time

This. The opportunities are forever abundant to help your local countrymen but it's not as sexy as promoting yourself as a real hero for stepping over the locals to lend a hand to foreigners off CNN

This has been an ongoing discussion with coworkers so I guess I was inaccurate when I said I just started looking into it. Without too much info my family has a lot to offer that I didn't realize until I spoke with these families and now that are finally settled financially (and career) and able to start looking into this more seriously.

Intention wasn't to anymously build myself up on a forum. Just wanted to share that I'm a regular guy and if I manage to follow through with this I will share the process with others that are interested.

FYI, I currently hate our provincial liberal leadership but I do like Trudeau as our country's figurehead (let's be serious, that's what he is).

Cereal refugee brah is known to be THE most hung guy in the middle east, possibly one of the biggest in the world. his cock has been described as "like an evian bottle", with gargantual thickness that would rival shane diesel and shorty mac. im estimating his size to be at least 8.5" bone pressed, with OVER 7" of girth. he would have absolutely destroyed wifey's pussy.

they would have spent hours and hours on foreplay, getting herself wet enough just so she can take it. i can just imagine her begging for it, with cereal barely able to force it past the knob, and wifey moaning and squirming, demanding him to force it in deeper. she would have orgasm'd within seconds of taking the entire length, being filled and stretched right up to her cervix.. the orgasm would have been powerful, with her vaginal muscles clamping down on cereal throbbing monstrosity, her whole body quivering in euphoria..

i bet she still masturbates to the memory of it

Using massive tax dollars wasn't enough, they've now convinced people to privately subsidize refugees. No words.

Virtue signaling is a helluva drug.
And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his gods?
