You seem to be talking about war refugees. Canada has a pretty good record welcoming these. I'm talking about Lebanese using their Canadian citizenship when it's convenient for them. I'm not saying all, but it must be a large percentage [to have 40,000 Canadians] make their permanent home in Lebanon. Why do they get special privileges where they expect us to jump when they get in trouble. We've aready given our hospitality once and bailed them out and they've moved right back. They've made their bed.

Having said this, I'm sure there are many who are only visiting Lebanon and these deserve to be transported out.
