Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino is blaming the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) for failing to brief Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Beijing’s attempts to threaten the family of Conservative MP Michael Chong.
“It is a serious issue that neither the prime minister nor the public safety minister at the time were informed directly by CSIS about the case involving Mr. Chong,” said Mendicino, speaking to reporters outside the Liberal Party convention in Ottawa on May 6.
