A senator concerned about foreign interference in the Upper House is calling for Senate leaders to be granted access to an uncensored intelligence report that claims parliamentarians colluded with foreign actors.

The report, released by the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) on June 3, said that some parliamentarians were “semi-witting or witting” participants in foreign interference efforts against Canada, though it did not disclose the names of those allegedly implicated.
