donald trump: He one of at least two Canadian politicians angling to be so defined by the moment, according to CBC. Leitch and 'anti-Canadian values' Unmentioned in the course of Trudeau and Khan conversation was Kellie Leitch, she of the proposal that we screen newcomers for anti-Canadian values. At issue was the spectre of popular sentiment turning against immigration and diversity, a concern that has grown in the past 12 months with the rise of Donald Trump in the U.S. and the victory of Brexit in the U.K. McCallum says Liberals debating immigrationANALYSIS How do you screen beliefs Trudeau fight with forces of Brexit and Donald Trump "What you do as a leader when you are faced with anxiety and concerns really defines, I think, the kind of leader you are," Trudeau said, perhaps a bit hopefully.
