NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and Green Leader Elizabeth May say none of their MPs are named in NSICOP's foreign interference report but Justin Trudeau won't say if Liberals were named.
The second day of the G7 summit saw history being made with Pope Francis addressing world leaders at the event for the first time.
“The issue of foreign interference is one that this government has taken incredibly seriously since 2015,” Trudeau told reporters from the G7 in Italy., a group comprised members from all parties, said that some parliamentarians are “semi-witting or witting” participants in the efforts of foreign states to meddle in Canadian politics but did not name specific MPs or senators.
Bloc Québecois leader Yves-François Blanchet has also committed to reviewing the unredacted report but has not yet done so. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has declined to take the steps necessary to do the same.Trudeau echoed previous concerns made by Public Safety Minister Dominic Leblanc, that the committee had not properly interpreted intelligence provided to them by Canadian Security Intelligence Service and other nation security agencies.
Despite his disagreement, Trudeau did not provide any examples of what he found to be inaccurate with the report or provide any additional information about what is in the unredacted version of the document.This is not the first time Trudeau has disputed key findings on foreign interference.
