Former Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole told the Foreign Interference Commission on Sept. 18 that he considered removing a senator from his party’s caucus over concerns of potential foreign influence.
Testifying before the commission, O‘Toole said a local mayor informed one of his MPs that a Conservative senator had been advocating for a Chinese company in Ontario. O’Toole expressed “serious concerns” about the issue, particularly due to the senator receiving what he described as “pretty extensive” sponsored travel to China.
