Ontario MP Kellie Leitch has floated the idea of applying such a test to potential immigrants as a way to make sure their views on issues like gender equality are aligned with Canadian values. CALGARY—Former prime minister Brian Mulroney has waded into the debate over screening newcomers for “anti-Canadian values,” saying he sees no need to toughen the immigration process as one Conservative leadership contender is suggesting. Mulroney’s speech to the university’s law faculty focused on another controversial issue dominating Canadian politics — pipelines. He urged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to take a leadership role in ensuring new pipelines like TransCanada’s $15.7-billion Alberta-to-New Brunswick Energy East pipeline are built. The regulatory process for Energy East has been mired in controversy.
