The prime minister and Quebec’s premier faced-off in Montreal today in a dispute over immigration. François Legault asked Justin Trudeau to grant Quebec full control over how many immigrants and asylum seekers are allowed into that province. The premier says Quebec has surpassed its capacity and immigration control is crucial in preserving the French language. The premier’s request was rejected by the prime minister, but that wasn’t the only item on Legault’s wish-list. Mike Armstrong reports.
