Conservative MP and ethics critic James Bezan is asking the privacy commissioner to investigate the hacking of the GiveSendGo crowdfunding platform and subsequent leak of private information on donors to the Freedom Convoy fundraiser.

“The illegal hacking of crowdfunding platforms and email accounts has resulted in tens of thousands of Canadians’ personal information being circulated online,” wrote Bezan in his March 9 letter to Commissioner Daniel Therrien.
