As long they bring in families, the risk is pretty small. My only concern would be if they allow in single men.
Not a chance in hell. These are UN HCNR vetted refugees. Families, widows, etc. Single men don't qualify.
Not exactly.
The UNHCNR only decides if they qualify to enter one of their camps as a refugee.
What you might call vetting or deciding which of those refugees can be sent to America, - and I would guess the process is similar for Canada - is done by contracted Resettlement Support Centers (RSCs).
http://www.rcusa.org/uploads/pdfs/Refug ... 0USCRI.pdfIn that part of the world these are most often run by Muslims and there have been credible reports of dirty dealings.
Also there is reason to believe the most heavily victimized of the refugees cannot make it in a UN camp to begin with, so UNHCNR will not be dealing with most of them at all.

The Syrian civil war began in the spring of 2011 and, since that year, the U.S. has accepted more than 2,187 refugees, but only 61 Christians. The majority – 96 percent – are Muslims, mostly Sunni, while the another 25 refugees are a mix of atheist, no religion, other, Bahai, Yazidi or Zoroastrian. In 2015, the U.S. allowed in the bulk of its refugees – 1,829 – but only 30, or 1.6 percent, were Christian.
Christians accounted for about 10 percent of the Syrian population in 2011.
Part of the reason for the low numbers of resettled Christians in the U.S. may be that most Christians fleeing ISIS in Syria do not make their way into United Nations camps.
“Those camps are infiltrated by ISIS and jihadist groups,” said Nina Shea, the director of the Center for Religious Freedom and an international human rights lawyer. “The women would be vulnerable to rape and sex trafficking and the men would have to swear allegiance to the caliphate, according to aid people who have been in the camps.”
But the camps are the easiest way for migrants to register with the UN as refugees, Shea said. There is a heavy UN High Commission for Refugees presence in the camps, and simply gaining refugee status is the first crucial step in the long process of resettling.
“The UN is basically unloading; it’s emptying out its camps,” Shea told FoxNews.com. “It’s not seeking those who are outside its camps, much less giving affirmative action for those who are facing genocide. It’s just an expedience measure for those who are in their own camps, so non-Muslim minorities are poorly represented among them.”
