I always wanted to know,

what is your favorite memory of working at The Daily Show?

- Oh man,

uh, today.

- No, I mean like of, of like all time.

- No, right now, this is great.

- No, I know you're really enthusiastic about things.

- No, this is awesome, like my own desk.

This is kinda cool.

- [Trevor] That's still my desk.

- No, no, no, I like this on me.

It's my show.

- It's not your show.

We're just doing a special about--

- We'll be right back.

- No, you can't say that 'cause the show--

- Here it is, your Moment of Them,

the best of Hasan Minhaj.

- Here it is, your Moment of Them,

the best of Hasan Minhaj.

(audience applauds)

- Canada, from their awful beer

to their God-awful Canadian tuxedos,

they've got a lot to apologize for, but now,

they've got a new reason to say sorry

and it's coming to destroy America.

I'm talking about

Syrian refugees.

- Thousands of Syrian refugees entering Canada

will sneak across the US border.

Some of them will be ISIS supporters.

- [Hasan] Canada's super progressive prime minister

Justin Trudeau has already allowed

more than 25,000 of these potential terrorists into Canada.

Luckily, I had allies across the border,

these Canucks were actually doing

something about Trudeau's refugee invasion,

and they were more pissed off

than any Canadians I had ever seen.

- People are really upset.

- Oh, yes, good.

- We're demanding that the immigration minister

bring in more refugees and do it really quickly.

- What?

You guys want more refugees?

- Absolutely, we have thousands of people across the country

waiting to welcome people into their homes.

- Are you (bleeps) nuts?

It turns out they were part of the problem,

something call the Private Sponsorship Program.

Only in Canada can groups of five or more people

just raise money and bring over Syrian refugees themselves.

It's like Kickstarter for terrorists.

- Almost 10,000 have been brought in by groups like ours.

- This is just like Game of Thrones, okay?

You're gonna let these brown Ice Walkers

go nuts up in the North,

then they're gonna cross the border and kill all Americans.

- This isn't about you.

We're doing this for ourselves

and we're doing it for the refugees we're bringing in.

- It is about me if I'm gonna die.

- It's not even that big a risk.

Look at the facts.

And we don't say a-boot.

- Okay, I'm sorry.

- That, we say.

- Okay, let's look at the facts.

Since 9/11, zero terrorists planning attacks

have been caught crossing the US-Canada border,

but if you go back almost 20 years,

two people have tried and one of them was a refugee.

Sure, he was caught and is serving two

consecutive life sentences,

but it proves you can't say

there is a 0% chance because it's way more.

There's a 0.00019% chance.

Our border is like a Starbucks bathroom.

Anybody can just walk in there and blow (bleeps) up.

This guy knows what I'm talking about.

- They're screens by the UN.

They're safe.

They come here, they Canadian-ize.

- No, you guys.

- Don't you have more Americans dying from gun incidents

and mass shootings than from terrorism every year?

- But those people aren't terrorists.

They have mental problems, there's a difference.

- The difference being the color of the skin?

- Yes, White people have mental illnesses.

Brown people are biologically

designed to kill you guys.

- Have you met a recent-arrived refugee?

- Why would I go meet someone who's gonna kill me?

- So we're gonna decide not to help 49,999 people

because one person went bad?

- Yep.

That's the American way.

- That's not how we look at it.

We wouldn't blame all Syrians for that one Syrian.

We don't blame all Americans for Donald Trump.

- You should.

These hosiers just didn't get it.

I decided to seek out the man who started this mess,

the one Canadian who could shut this whole thing down.

Why are you trying to destroy North America?

You're letting anyone walk in and just (bleeps) up.

- North America was built with people

fleeing persecution, conflicts, wars,

trying to build a better life

for themselves and their families.

- It's too open, it's too free.

Mr. J.T., I went to customs and they were like,

"What are you here to do?"

And I'm like,

"I am here to roast Prime Minister Justin Trudeau."

And do you know what the guy said?

"Have a nice day."

(laughs)

What if I came here to literally roasts you?

- You might find that a little more difficult than you,

than you think.

(audience laughs)

- Are you gonna kick my ass right now?

- Are you gonna literally roast me?

- No.

- Then we're fine.

- [Hasan] Things were getting heated in Ottawa.

Luckily, I had America to back me up.

Right now, 51% of Americans oppose

letting any Syrian refugees into the US.

Just like we had the guts to say

no to Jewish refugee children,

Hungarians fleeing mass murder and the Vietnamese.

- You know, I think maybe we have better

faith in the people we invite over.

- [Hasan] Faith?

You're talking about the greatest Canadian

terrorist threat since September 11, 2001,

the day Nickelback unleashed

their breakthrough album Silver Side Up on America.

That's a real fact, look it up.

- You know what?

Nickelback's all right.

- But you know what isn't' all right?

Terrorists on moose back crossing our northern border.

Mr. Trudeau, you cannot trust these people.

You're gonna breed an ISIS

that's impervious to cold, an ice ISIS.

Mr. Prime Minister,

we are sitting here in the wake of so many terror attacks.

How can you be sure letting in all of these refugees,

that even in .01% become radicalized,

you could be living with 25 different Paris attacks,

25 different Belgium attack,

how can you go to sleep at night

knowing that that risk is imminent?

- We live in a world where there are always risks.

The question is how much

do you want to live in fear of those risks?

The best counter to the kind of radicalization

and marginalization that we've seen in other

parts of the world is to create

an inclusive society where everyone,

especially Muslim-Canadians,

have every opportunity to succeed just like everybody else.

- [Hasan] Okay, fair point.

I'm willing to admit that some refugees aren't terrorists,

but still, they're just so foreign.

- One of the great things about Canadian culture

is we figured out that it's done by addition.

So, you know,

you take flavors and perspectives

and experience of the world,

and you create something better than the sum of its parts.
