Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he has the names of Conservative parliamentarians who are involved in foreign interference.Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is sworn in as a witness at the Foreign Interference Commission in Ottawa, in Ottawa, on Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2024. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he has the names of Conservative parliamentarians who are involved in foreign interference.

Dong went on to win the election as a Liberal but stepped down from the Liberal caucus in 2023 and currently sits as an Independent. "The decision by the leader of the Conservative Party to not get those classified briefings means that nobody in his party, not him, nobody in a position of power knows the names of these individuals and can take appropriate action," he said.
"My message to Justin Trudeau is: release the names of all MPs that have collaborated with foreign interference," Poilievre wrote. "But he won't. Because Justin Trudeau is doing what he always does: he is lying. He is lying to distract from a Liberal caucus revolt against his leadership and revelations he knowingly allowed Beijing to interfere and help him win two elections.
