Conservative leadership candidate Kellie Leitch says her supporters shouldn't be dismissed as racist for backing her proposal to screen prospective immigrants for "anti-Canadian values," and she won't rescind her policy pledge despite criticism from some after the Quebec mosque shooting. - Kellie Leitch"We have a Canadian identity, and it's grounded in values like hard work, generosity, freedom and tolerance. Those are the values that built our country, and those are the values that I'm talking about." Kellie Leitch's campaign manager Nick Kouvalis called a constitutional expert a 'cuck' on Twitter for comments he made about the anti-Canadian values test. In a series of tweets after the attack, Chong said the shooting was a "direct result" of politics that plays to "fears and prejudices."
