Canadian election monitors spent four years prosecuting Rebel News Network over signage but did not put the same effort into investigating allegations of foreign interference, an inquiry into election interference was told.

Rebel News was issued two notices of violation over lawn signs promoting a book titled “Librano$: What The Media Won’t Tell You About Justin Trudeau’s Corruption,” authored by Rebel co-founder Ezra Levant and released around the time of the 2019 federal election.
