Do you think it's wrong to freeze the bank accounts of members of al Qaeda?

What's the distinction between a member of al Qaeda and a Nazi? Both are foreign groups that use violence to get their way. Both groups are considered enemies of Canada.

Should members of al Qaeda be allowed to do as they please in Canada because "they just have different ideals?"

Strawman detected. Citizens protesting is not the same thing as foreign terrorists doing whatever.

If a member of al Qaeda has a legal job that he gets paid for, he should be allowed to have the money he earned. Money for work is so basic.
