Immigration New Zealand (INZ) is assessing a visa application from controversial commentator Candace Owens after Australia cancelled her entry over inflammatory statements. Owens, previously a conservative activist for The Daily Wire, recently sparked backlash for Holocaust denial and comments on Muslims, leading Australian Immigration Minister Tony Burke to say Owens has a “capacity to incite discord in almost every direction.” The 35-year-old was previously cited in the Christchurch mosque shooter’s manifesto, heightening security concerns around her planned visit.
