These 14 countries have taken more refugees than Canada

[Mifuyne]

Wasn't aware there was a competition going

Some people like to make a competition out of everything to feel superior over someone else.
Taking in refugees has positive effects and negative effects.

[Ulfric Trumpcloak]

Shameful. I think @Tennisace should commit sudoku to atone for Canada's sins.

Would rid this website of a lot of trash, that's for sure.

I find it interesting that Austria and Switzerland have taken more than France and the UK, but seem to be having fewer issues with it. What are they doing differently? Or is it a case of media not caring about those countries as much?

Hmm the past is different. Austria and switzerland were never real colonial powers. the took in refugees now but they don't have a history of old colonials coming to them. (which happens quite often in GB and france). So while there are more refugees, there are fewer 2 or 3 generation people from africa/neareast.
But there are enough issues with this, well with that in connection to the rightwingers. There is really not much violence no terroristic acts. Violent crimes have increased in some pro-mil but after beginning to send the troublemakers back to kabul this seems to be normalising. time will tell.
And something a lost less glamorous: you don't fight where your money's at. people always forget that the guys behind the terrorism are just businessman.

All those eastern european parasite countries are crying about having to take in refugees, yet they are on the bottom of the list - both relatively and absolutely. Still every year those parasites eagerly hold up their hand when Brussels distributes the money.

I wonder what happened to those millions of Ukrainian refugees Poland supposedly took in.

Sept 20....... 2016.......

I know stats like this are hard to put together on more than a yearly basis, but c'mon xD

[Devonitar]

Canada is like switzerland during WWII they only let those in that will benefit them.

Or like Canada during WWII.

The world should start to try and eliminate the problems that made people a refuge, instead of spreading them all over the globe.
Forcing countries to meet a quota on refugees and make a shame-list of it is even more stupid. Pulling people out of their countries doesn't solve anything. Take it on by it's roots. A countries troubles won't just go away by themselves by exporting the civilian population.

Like pulling out trees from a forest during a fire instead of dowsing the fire. It's idiotic.

Most Canadians don't want more refugees tbh. Trudeau will find that out when he gets bounced from office in 2019

If that were the case he wouldn't have been elected in the first place.

How would you plan on tackling negative emotions?
It's not as simple as you make it out to be since we're talking about "because x or y does this, they are bad/good".
Look at how divided we are as a species.

To get rid of this fire would require us to get rid of something that has made us get this far to begin with.
Unless you can get rid of the things that make us human, there will always be fires.

He got elected under a lot of false promises. Electoral reform in particular, turned out to be a huge fucking lie. There were other things he promised to do that I can't remember off the top of my head. Of course, he is a Lie-beral, that's all they do is bullshit their.way into power. Canadians did not ask for 50k refugees a year, nor were we consulted on the issue either.

Just like how Trump got into power basically?
If his actions don't reflect the country than he won't be reelected.

[Aggrophobic]

Rubbish list.

Most or all of these countries have refugees showing up on their borders/doorsteps. Hardly the same as Canada, where we choose to fly in our refugees.

Which other country has flown in more Syrian refugees?

Well, you kinda have to. It's hard to walk from Syria to Canada.
The OP is right in a way though, Canada is not at all helping as much as you'd like people to think.

Good For them.
A refugee fleeing conflict should not be able to choose which country they go to, it should be down to the state to choose whether they accept a person as a refugee or not and if they should be offered a safe haven.

I agree with this sentiment.

Countries are as individualistic as from person to person, setting up straight rules that lists countries in groups is hardly a proper thing to do.
Just because country A can handle X amount of refugees doesn't mean that country B can handle the same amount "because they are fairly similar".


Sadly enough we have not enough data to confirm the absolute number of refugees that a certain country can take in without the negative overcoming the positive.
All we can do is take in the information that is given to us and make decisions with it.

Germany might be able to handle the higher percentage of refugees to citizens (compared to - for example - China) or it might not be, we can't be certain as of now.

[Kalis]

This is a disgrace. Trudeau needs to go.

[Independent voter]

Wow! Look at Germany.

I worry that Europe isn't integrating refugees. You can be sure 90% of US refugees are self supporting.

Canada is able to cherry pick women and children while the Balkans and Eastern Europe have been flooded by 26-30 year old fighting age men that claim to be 14. Canada should be ashamed of themselves.

That's funny...I feel no shame. Just a sense that we've been smarter about it, and that your shame attempt is answerable with two BIG, FAT, middle fingers.
ta-ta

[Ghostpanther]

From what I read they are very selective in who gets in.

Yep and Trump wants to be selective and they label him a racist.

[Deleted]

Sweden the same number as the US

Feels real exotic with just 40% swedes in the city center at midday, here is to the furture frau Merkel, Prost!

[noidentity]

Would rid this website of a lot of trash, that's for sure.

Unfortunately Tennisbait spending his time playing number puzzles likely wouldn't stop him from posting on this site.
