Crowdfunding platform GoFundMe said Russia played no role in the financing of the Freedom Convoy in testimony before the House Finance Committee Thursday, with a Liberal MP suggesting it was the case.

Sophie Chatel prefaced her questioning of GoFundMe by saying that Russia has been “engaged in misinformation warfare for years” and that it has $1 trillion in “dark money that is circulating, dedicated to undermine our democracy.”
