A House committee report demanding an independent inquiry into election interference is expected to be introduced in the Commons on March 8, in response to reports of Beijing’s meddling in Canada’s last two federal elections.

Liberal MP Bardish Chagger, who is chair of the Procedure and House Affairs Committee (PROC) told MPs at the committee meeting on March 7 that the report will likely be presented today.
