Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he spoke with Conservative MP Michael Chong shortly after a news story broke citing top-secret intelligence documents alleging Chong’s family members living in Hong Kong were targeted by the Chinese regime in 2021.

Trudeau said in the House of Commons during question period on May 2 that he “followed up directly” with Chong after the Globe and Mail first published the report on May 1.
