Canada is already giving preference based on religion. They aren't denying immigration based on religion, but they are giving refugee status based on religion. Specifically to Syrian Christians. They are giving them refugee status on the grounds that they will face persecution if they go back to living in a muslim majority state that has been overrun with fanatics.
