Thing is immigration doesn't breed the crime, it's their level of poverty. There's lots of great immigrants. Whether you're white 10th generation Canadian or 3rd world immigrant, poverty level is a strong predictor of crime When you take in refugees from poor countries like Somalia or Rwanda etc. because their life is threatened there, they come over often with very little wealth. Then they might have to live in community housing or low-income neighbourhoods, they may not be highly educated, and some can turn to crime, and their life might still suck so they turn to drugs to cope, and some people they meet in their neighboorhood are into drugs & crime & they get involved in that stuff with them.
Very similar reason why, ie: African-Americans in many parts have high crime rates. It's not their skin colour or religion etc it's that they're poor.
Then we should either not take in refugees or take in a lot fewer so they can be properly set up, educated and given a skill. If Canada wants to help world refugees we could accomplish far more by giving money to places like Jordan and Lebanon and Turkey where there are vast camps for refugees than we can by taking them in here and putting them on welfare.
