Bloc Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet speaks with reporters in the Foyer of the House of Commons before Question Period, Wednesday, April 17, 2024 in Ottawa.

Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet is cautioning MPs against making a “partisan show” of a parliamentary probe into the case of two men accused of planning a terror attack in Toronto.Bloc Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet speaks with reporters in the Foyer of the House of Commons on Wednesday, April 17, 2024 in Ottawa.

"The more people who enter the country … the more risks there are — it's true in Canada and elsewhere — that one might miss something along the way," Blanchet told reporters in Ottawa on Thursday.
