Marine Le Pen and Religious Minorities

Le Pen: Le Pen says Canada political leaders have shown little regard for the consequences of their decisions, according to CTV. She says the consequences could include accelerating the demands of religious minorities, such as providing space for prayer or the establishment of religious courts. Marine Le Pen says the federal Liberal decisions on immigration, particularly its welcoming of Syrian refugees, are "erroneous." She made the comments on Sunday during a news conference in Quebec City. Le Pen suggested the result could be increased tensions. "A multicultural society is a society in conflict," said the French politician, who is spending the next few days in Quebec. Part of the trip is also personal in nature. Her trip will include a visit to a Bombardier plant as part of an economic mission of the European Parliament. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
