The Syrian refugees continue to arrive in Canada.
A jetliner carrying 214 refugees landed Friday at Toronto's Pearson Airport after a flight from Beirut.
Almost 15-hundred Syrians have come to Canada since the Trudeau government took office early last month.
The government plans to resettle 25-thousand Syrians by the end of February, 10-thousand of them by year's end.
David Petrasek is a former special adviser to the Secretary-General of Amnesty International.
He says there are things beyond the government's control.
一客机搭载214名难民从贝鲁特起飞的航班后，周五在多伦多皮尔逊机场降落。自从特鲁多政府上个月着手工作后，约一千五百叙利亚人来到加拿大。政府计划在明年二月底前安置二万五千叙利亚人，到今年年底安置1万余人。
大卫David Petrasek是前大赦国际秘书长的特别顾问。他说，有些事情超出政府所能控制。
"Renewed fighting in Turkey, in the southeast, has created security problems for Canadian staff who need to be to be interviewing refugees. That just means they can't do it. Flights into certain places can't go to bring refugees. The are a whole set of other factors that are beyond the government's control", said Petrasek.
He added "scaling up" the resettlement program is what matters, that it continue.
"Whether we get 10,000 by the 31st or by the 7th of January, frankly, I don't it's that important. I think the point is to keep the scaled up program running", said Petrasek.
Petrasek was a guest on CJAD's "Viewpoints" on Saturday.
“无论我们截止到12月31日，或是1月7日达到一万名，坦率地说，我不认为这是非常重要的。“我认为保持启动了的程序稳步前行才是重要的”，Petrasek说。Petrasek是CJAD的周六播出的“观点”节目中的嘉宾。
