Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre today said that RCMP equipment contracts awarded by a federal department to a company with ties to the Chinese regime should be “banned and reversed.”

“Let’s put this into perspective: This is a contract for anti-eavesdropping technology to be used by our police force that was awarded to a company whose owner is charged with 21 potential espionage crimes in the United States,” Poilievre told reporters on Parliament Hill.
