OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has asked national security services to find a way to share information with Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre about foreign interference affecting his caucus, he said Wednesday.
Earlier this month, Trudeau told a public inquiry that he has been given the names of past and present Conservative parliamentarians and candidates who are linked to foreign interference.While responding to a question from Poilievre in the House of Commons on Wednesday, Trudeau said he's working to ensure the Opposition leader gets more information.
"So I have asked the security services to figure out a way to give some information to the leader of the Opposition so that he can actually fulfil his responsibility of protecting Canadians, including those within his own caucus." Despite urging from all other party leaders, Poilievre has refused to get top-level security clearance that would enable him to get top-secret briefings from agencies including the Canadian Security Intelligence Service.
