Canada Syria Refugees

When a Syrian couple, refugees in Canada, named their newborn son after the country's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in May, they only hoped their child would be able to meet his famous namesake one day. On Saturday, that wish came true. Baby Justin Trudeau (yes, that's his his first name) met the Canadian Prime Minister.

A Syrian couple, refugees in Canada, have named their newborn after the country's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Fun fact: Justin Trudeau is the baby's first name! His full name? Justin Trudeau Adam Bilal.

Several weeks ago, Danielle Létourneau, a Quebec actress, found herself in her kitchen reading on social media some disturbing reactions to the Paris terrorist attacks and the Canadian government's decision to welcome at least 25,000 Syrian refugees over the next few months.

The Canadian government is concerned about a possible backlash against plans to bring 25,000 Syrian refugees to Canada, especially if the public thinks the newcomers were being "pampered", a cabinet minister said on Tuesday.

Canada will accept only whole families, lone women or children in its mass resettlement of Syrian refugees while unaccompanied men -- considered a security risk -- will be turned away, it emerged Monday.

Canada will stick to a decision to withdraw its fighter jets from a mission against Islamic State militants despite last week's Paris attacks, new Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Monday.

As the Syrian refugee crisis became a major campaign issue this week, the Canadian opposition party New Democrats promised Saturday to welcome Syrian refugees to Canada if it wins the upcoming legislative elections.
