The Pierre Elliot Trudeau Foundation says it is launching an independent review of the donation it received from a Chinese regime insider in 2016.

The foundation announced the move in an April 12 statement a few hours after La Presse reported that the donation had not been returned as previously claimed, leading to an internal crisis and the resignation of the leadership team.
