NEW POLL : The Trump Effect Spreads Throughout Canada

A new poll reveals that a “Trump-style” populist candidate in Canada is gaining popularity, as well as a growing suspicion of Islamic refugees.

From The Daily Caller

The internet poll surveyed 2,513 people across Canada, including 1,024 Quebecers, and was conducted over four days in January, including the day of the infamous Quebec City Mosque shooting.

The good news for Conservative Party of Canada leadership candidate Kellie Leitch and her “Canadian values” campaign: three-quarters of those polled are in favor of vetting new immigrants with a Canadian values test to determine their ideology on basic equality issues.

The Canadian mainstream media and even some of Leitch’s Conservative colleagues consistently suggest that Leitch is “extreme” or out of step with mainstream Canadians with her values test. Just last week, Calgary Member of Parliament Deepak Obhrai said he was “outraged”over Leitch’s equality questions and suggested that it created “a dangerous environment.”
