Even if you bump it to February 1st or March 1st, that wouldn't be overly onerous on those that are having to stay in a shelter while things get processed.

I agree, the government should just rid itself of a firm deadline and issue a statement saying they will be admitting the 25,000 refugees as quickly, efficiently, with as thorough and proper vetting as possible. There will be no shortcuts taken. I think if they do that then there will be little resistance by the public and as far as I'm concerned there is no reason not to do this.
