your stance on this refugee issue is very clear freerights,canada's saftey first is not it

[Fancy]

WERE IS YOUR CONCERN about all these refugees coming here without all there vaccines anyway

What in the world are you talking about? You seem to think families and infants should be in unheated tents in below zero weather? Talk about cruel and unusual punishment.

There is no way children would be living in unheated accommodations.

never said that you did,but yes some of are kids do on some winter weekends https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfXmC6_aYHE

if Vernon cadet camp is good enough for my kids to sleep in for the last few years,FOR SIX WEEKS AT A TIME -IT SHOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM OR ANYONE ELSE

You pretty much said it right there. So your kids lived in tents in the middle of winter with no heat and you expect families with infants and toddlers to do the same? Cruel.

Cold temperature exposure can also happen if you spend time in a dwelling or other building that is not well heated during cold weather.

You can keep editing your post all you want the truth but still won't make sense when accommodating infants during winter.

Serious question, can you read?

I'm not trying to belittle you if you cannot, but I'm legitimately scratching my head at this comment. As I've been perfectly clear that domestic security is obviously the single most important thing I care about on this subject, I'm at an absolute loss how you possibly could have come up with the complete opposite conclusion as to what I mean.

Either that, or you have no idea what my stance is and you're trying to make things up to attack my character like we're in high school again.

I'm quoting you -

well kids last winter slept in the larger tents outside

We're not talking weekends but extended periods living in below zero temperatures in accommodations not suited for families. I haven't twisted anything.

thetruth .. I know you have a lot of concerns about the refugees coming to Canada. And it's all right, you're allowed.
This is an excellent read that may alleviate some of your concerns.

For children and adolescents, health care professionals will work to get vaccinations up to date. Bowry said they'll also be on the lookout for what's known as failure to thrive, a state of undernutrition.

they should be good enough for the refugees also

But they are not.

$1.5M to winterize CFB Valcartier houses

With winter on the doorstep, the military is also making plans to winterize some of its training bases to accommodate refugees.
•Valcartier military base to take in Syrian refugees
•Vancouver real estate magnate offers up building for Syrian refugees
•Ontario looking at decommissioned hospitals for temporary refugee housing

A call for tenders went out on Thursday to winterize 10 buildings that normally house cadets during summer training at the Canadian Forces Base Valcartier in Quebec.

The $1.5 million project for "the supply of labour, material, supervision and equipment necessary to winterize 10 houses at the Cadet Camp" would have to be completed within "a very short timeline" of Dec. 30, according to the notice posted online Thursday.

The work includes the installation of a heating and venting system, the construction of new exterior walls, the installation of exterior doors, floor and roof insulation as well as fireproof curtains.

Contractors have until Nov. 24 to make a bid for the defence contract.

Winter housing search ramps up

Preparation by the military is also underway to winterize at least two other training bases in Ontario.

"CFB Meaford and Borden are two locations that will require winterization of accommodations and preparation is currently underway," said Tessier, a spokesperson with national defence, in an email to CBC on Thursday.

The military is also moving Canadian Forces members who are in military bases in Quebec and Edmonton on temporary assignments to other wings or rental units to free up space "for possible refugee accommodation," she said.

While no directive has gone out asking Canadian Forces members to cancel their vacation time, Tessier said "the requirement for some to work over the Christmas period has not been discounted."

•Refugees should not be made scapegoats for Paris attacks, Ontario groups say

A separate call for tenders was issued by the Department of Public Services and Procurement today for companies that could lease out winterized lodging and other services in Ontario and Quebec.

"The government of Canada is seeking interested companies that have the capacity, capability and availability to provide leasing, management and servicing of temporary winterized lodgings for groups of 500-3000 people by early December 2015 at sites to be confirmed," said the online posting without mention of refugees.

Housing units would be needed for both "individuals and large families."

Interested suppliers have until Friday to make a submission.
