When Justin Trudeau took office as Canada's prime minister last month, many Liberals expressed hope that the man who brought them a Cabinet that "looks like Canada" would renew the country's reputation as a diverse, tolerant nation and humanitarian leader, particularly as issues of race, culture, and bias have聽become ongoing themes across the border聽in the US presidential campaign.

"I want to say this to this country's friends around the world:聽Many of you have worried that Canada has lost its compassionate and constructive voice in the world over the past 10 years," Mr. Trudeau told supporters in Ottawa after his party won 184 of the Parliament's 338 seats. "Well, I have a simple message for you on behalf of 35 million Canadians. We're back."

But throughout the campaign, Canadians showed some hesitance about a linchpin of Trudeau's聽foreign policy shift: a pledge to take in 25,000 Syrian refugees by January 1. Details of the plan are scheduled to be released Tuesday.听

On Sunday night, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation cited unnamed sources to report that Trudeau's policy .听

Even 25,000 makes Canada far more welcoming than the United States, where, thanks to state governors' rejection of refugee resettlement plans following the Paris attacks, the House of Representatives has now put a halt to President Obama's pledge to accept 10,000, most of whom would also be .听

But according to the United Nations' 聽worldwide, roughly half are male. Among both male and female refugees, about half are under age 17.

Politicians in the US and Canada have voiced concern over security screenings, particularly for young men. In Canada, however, police and intelligence chiefs have .听The Canadian government is already under pressure to quickly process refugees' security checks and figure out how to provide essentials within weeks, and, in the long term, to help the refugees meet acculturation challenges.

Many refugees will be temporarily housed in winterized military barracks.听Over six years, the program is , of which $1.1 billion still needs to be found.听

According to polls, the short time frame concerns many Canadians. Forty-two percent supported the plan, while 54 percent opposed it; 53 percent of its opponents , worried about adequate screening. The numbers have not changed dramatically since the Paris attacks, which prompted many US governors' vocal opposition to refugee resettlement.听

But Canada has not been immune from reactionary anti-Muslim hate crimes, particularly around the Toronto area and Ontario, where individuals have been attacked, as well as a mosque.听"You really realize ," high school student Sara Ahmad told the CBC.听

On the whole, however, provincial officials have backed Trudeau's plan, even than the central government requested. "I have never felt so patriotic as a Canadian as I am today, to be involved in bringing 25,000 people from the direst conditions on the planet here to our blessed country of Canada," Immigration Minister John McCallum said last Friday.听

The same day, other officials emphasized .

"That's the danger and that somehow talking about security allows us to tap into that racist vein, when that isn't who we are," Ontario Premier聽Kathleen Wynne said, while Health Minister Jane Philpott called the refugee plan "the Canadian way."

But as Canadians wait to hear details on Tuesday, wariness persists about fast-track adjustments, where every mistake may cost not just the Liberal party, but refugees themselves.

"Canadians are more likely to give Trudeau a pass on a modified role in the engagement against ISIS than to forgive a botched refugee operation," journalist聽Chantal H茅bert predicted in the Toronto Star. "Little could go a longer way to poison the well for the thousands of Middle East refugees , but also that of the incoming Liberal government."
