Justin Trudeau elaborates on what Chinese ‘interference’ he discussed with Xi Jinping at G20
Trudeau replied that his government has known for years about “consistent engagements” by Chinese government representatives in Canadian communities and with local media.
He also referred to “reports of illicit Chinese police stations” and said officials are concerned about these issues., in a brief second conversation that was caught on tape, about the fact that his office provided details to the media about their initial discussion. Trudeau was also pressed on whether he knew about alleged Chinese interference in the 2019 federal election, an issue that a parliamentary committee is currently investigating, and he said the integrity of Canadian elections was never in doubt in any briefing he received.
