The CCR joins in the global outrage at the recent mass murders in Paris and Beirut. The loss of life and shattering of our sense of security connects us to the daily death and destruction in Syria and in other countries at war. We hope that Canadians will remember that Syrian refugees are victims of this violence and will redouble their commitment to welcome them in Canada.
We are dismayed by some public statements unfairly associating refugees with security risks. We would like to point out the following:
Opening our doors to refugees is one of the strongest ways possible to reject the violence and the incitement to hatred and division represented by the attacks. Pour consulter sur le site du Conseil canadien pour les réfugiés : http://ccrweb.ca/en/statement-response-attacks-paris-and-beirut
