Maybe you should take a moment to educate yourself. Putin is NOT a good guy. From having political opponents assassinated, to imprisoning others. Additionally he has failed to make his country thrive. And thats kind of bad given that Russia actually does have a lot of natural resources.

A terrorist can enter Canada as a refugee, and then be smuggled across the border which is far less secure than the Mexican border.
Those refugees are subjected to major vetting before they are allowed into the country.
As for American paranoia and its xenophobia, build a northern wall along the US/Can border, then because people may resort to coming to the US by boat build walls up along your sea coasts,then because people may fly in dome off the entire country,end result an armed bunker full of Trumpests that no one in their right mind wants to go to anyway.

Aaah; would it be permitted to ask; if actual terrorists and your security were the object of the ban, why in heck is Trump banning travel from all nations but the ones proven responsible for 9/11?

26 Canadians died in those towers.

It doesn't matter. I just think that people that don't care about terrorism and criticizing the people that do care, should experience it first hand. They'll change their tune real fast, assuming they live through it.

Ask the Obama administration. They were the ones that came up with that list and the Congress approved of it.

Those 7 nations have no reliable ID system, whereas Saudi Arabia and Pakistan does.

Rather have idiot liberals posting stupid inanities pay for the wall.
