Poilievre says Liberal immigration target driven by Trudeau’s ‘ideology’ but doesn’t say if Conservatives might lower number

OTTAWA — Canada’s immigration system is broken, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre charged Tuesday, as he sidestepped questions about whether he would change current targets.

Appearing before reporters on Parliament Hill, Poilievre criticized Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s recent comments on housing and pledged to speed up entry for immigrants skilled in the building trades.
