Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the Foreign Interference Commission he knows the names of Conservative parliamentarians who are engaged in foreign meddling, and faulted Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre for not getting a security clearance to learn those names. Under questioning by counsel for the Conservatives, Trudeau added that he’s also aware of Liberal lawmakers, as well as those from other parties, who are implicated in foreign interference concerns.
“I have the names of a number of parliamentarians, former parliamentarians, and or candidates in the Conservative Party of Canada who are engaged or at high risk of, or for whom there is clear intelligence around foreign interference,” Trudeau said on Oct. 16.
