immigrants: Leitch said only one in 10 people coming to Canada sees a trained immigration officer, according to Metro News. Everyone on this stage supports immigration, but Im the only candidate who will require face-to-face interviews of new immigrants and screen for Canadian values, said Leitch. But when it came to immigration, the contenders had more to politely spar about.MP Kellie Leitch said she shares the idea of U.S. president-elect Donald Trump that newcomers should get more screening. Former MP Andrew Saxton said Canada needs the right immigrants with the right skills to fill jobs, while Winnipeg Dr. MP Deepak Obhrai, who is an immigrant, took Leitch to task. Daniel Lindsay said Canadians need to be safe but added that immigrants make this country. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
