Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he shares the concerns about Chinese election interference that a recent poll found a majority of Canadians hold, adding that he understands the public’s desire for government accountability in investigating the matter.

“I very much share the concerns of Canadians around interference from the Chinese government or other foreign governments, and I have shared those concerns all the way back to 2015,” Trudeau told reporters in Winnipeg on March 3.
