Enough stalling. We need an inquiry into Chinese election interference now
Intelligence and security sources report that the Chinese government sought to influence the outcome of recent federal elections by directing funds and attention to certain candidates for Parliament.
Since Mr. Johnston was a member of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation, and had been a friend of Pierre Trudeau, this created a justified perception of conflict of interest.called Mr. Johnston NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, meanwhile, believes the inquiry should be broadened beyond Chinese interference to include intrusions into Canada’s political space by other nations, including Russia, Iran and India.
The Chinese government allegedly also exerts pressure on media figures and private citizens in Canada in an effort to influence the political life of this country.
