Family denied a life in Canada because there son is a tax burden. There son has down syndrome and were told he would place a burden on the health care.  
Its on CBC im not very skilled with computers so hope someone can paste the link (thank you)  
 
Hope everyone that voted Trudeau in are happy that we saved ourselves the hassle of one little boy. We saved our healthcare a fortune. LOL. Now we saved our taxes lets bring in Refugees they wont cost anything LMAO.  
 

the child would be a tax burden. do you know how much it costs to have someone on the spectrum?? not likely because youve never had to pay out of pocket.  
 
while its sad, it is true.  
 
and i dont agree with refugees nor sending money out of Canada to help other countries when we cant even take care of our own first.

Add me to the list of those annoyed with MTS internet lately.  
 
Its not that its constantly slow, but it occasionally completely stalls or slows down for short periods.  
 
Its been happening for a couple weeks.

I don't get what this has to do with who I voted for?

is this the story?

If your sick you don't get in that's been policy for years before Justin came along.

Makes total sense. Why bring over people from other countries that have medical issues and have them tie up our strained medical system already. This has been in place for years. Every watch the Border Security show? They ask if you if have means to support yourself in the country.

Another reason for the non-liberals to place blame on Justin. We get it he's doing something you don't agree with, but he's only been PM for less than 6 months he couldn't have made as many changes as you like to blame him for! MAYBE before you go assume something (and posting on here) which makes you look a tad uneducated on policies, go search up WHY the child was denied. I will agree it is very unfortunate that happened, however there are MANY more reasons as to why, and is not solely because of Justin!

The CBC story is only giving one side to the story we will likely never here the Department side as to what their side is.  
 
This sort of contradicts some of the Syrians arriving.  
 
Several reports show several Syrians in wheel chairs that looked like they had some serious issues. Earlier reports from Edmonton health care (letter that was written to the press) that they have been over run with the Syrians who were supposed to be checked before they got here. Many were to be reported as to having mental health issues. All I can think of is more Vince Li's or whatever his name is now.

The problem I see is if the government allows this family to get permanent residency, then others who are in the similar situations are also going to want permanent residency. Then It turns into a why allow one family when not others situation. Eventually it will put a strain on the health care system. Its a crappy situation for the family and I feel bad for them, but at the same time the Government needs to look after the people who already live in Canada. There's people who have lived in Canada there whole lives and are having troubles getting the proper care they need.  
 
Also it said in the article that the family has been trying to get permanent residency for 3 years, so you cant throw all the blame on Justin Trudeau who has only been in power 6 months.
