My letter in the National Post, March 15, 2017:

Holding newcomers (one of which I once was) to the standard of our values is wrongheaded. Values are in the eye of the beholder so they're uncertain, undefined, and changeable. A better approach is to simply ensure newcomers intend to abide by our laws, which are certain, clearly defined, and change only through the political process. Laws are the values on which we all agree. Let's start there.
