The foreign interference inquiry’s initial report confirms that Beijing interfered in Canada’s democracy, the Conservatives said in a statement following the release of the report by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue on May 3.
“The Commissioner confirmed that ‘interference occurred in the last two general elections,’ that it impacted those elections and ’the right of Canadians to have their electoral processes and democratic institutions free from covert influence,'” said the statement, quoting excerpts from the inquiry’s report.
