Canada

OTTAWA Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s main line of defence to accusations he ignored specific CSIS warnings about Chinese government funding of Canadian political candidates began to wobble early Wednesday.

It began with a leak of another secret document: an unredacted committee report never publicly released that, Global News claimed, explicitly advised Trudeau’s office of covert funding of candidates ahead of the federal election in 2019.

It continued with Trudeau deflecting questions about what he knew and when, by deferring to the very committee whose report had just been leaked.

Shaky ground? He’s dead in the water. Trudeau is a congenital liar who should be investigated for treason.

Justin Trudeau refuses to answer questions on when he was made aware of briefings on foreign interference in Canada’s federal election, which he initially denied ever receiving.

The more one studies the process the Trudeau government developed to ostensibly warn Canadians about foreign and domestic interference in federal elections, the more it becomes obvious it was doomed to fail, whether or not that was the intention.

Junior and the LPC reek of corruption and have no right to remain in power.

But what recourse do we have given Singh will not act in the interest of Canadian citizens?

None that I am aware of beyond insurrection.

The right of recall and term limits should be election issues.

As the evidence mounts and the days and the hours pass, it’s becoming impossibly difficult for the Liberal government to convincingly deny that during the 2019 and 2021 federal elections, Chinese diplomats were involved in a sophisticated interference operation run by regime proxies deeply embedded in the Liberal Party, and that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau knew about it, and said nothing.

The 64 Dollar question: How do we give Junior the Boot? Singh lacks all honour.

We’re going to have a rapporteur examine Chairman Xi’s surreptitious needlework during our Canadian elections. As opposed to, in place of, or more precisely, to avoid a public inquiry.

Surely no one expected anything better. Surely no one expected anything different from Deflection and Avoidance Central, which is the Prime Minister’s Office.

OTTAWA — In the wake of new allegations of foreign interference, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau insisted he has no information about money from the Chinese government working its way into Canadian elections.

Global News reported Wednesday on two briefing notes it obtained through intelligence sources that indicated the government was warned in 2019 and 2022 that the Chinese government was funnelling money to Canadian election candidates.

Senior government figures have attempted to downplay the significance of the leaks

Top federal officials have downplayed the quality of leaked intelligence on the Chinese regime’s election interference in Canada, but a review of what has been reported shows that they are more than just uncorroborated sole-source observations.

Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs David Morrison told the Commons Procedure and House Affairs Committee (PROC) on March 2 that there was no interference in recent elections and backed his position by saying disparate intelligence reports can be unreliable.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he knows Canadians still have questions about China’s role in the past two elections — but he’s still refusing to answer specific questions about the briefings he has received.

Instead, he suggested Wednesday a recently announced special rapporteur and two intelligence agencies are better placed to look into what kind of information was shared with whom.

“To be quite honest, I know that no matter what I say, Canadians continue to have questions about what we did and what we didn’t,” he told reporters on Parliament Hill Wednesday.

Questions about whether the Prime Minister’s Office was briefed on alleged Chinese interference in the 2019 election dominated question period again on Wednesday — with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau calling suggestions that he isn’t loyal to Canada “despicable.”

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre tried multiple times Wednesday to get the prime minister to respond to allegations that he and his national security adviser were warned that Chinese government officials were funnelling money to Canadian political candidates — despite their claims to the contrary.

Justin Trudeau’s Liberals are certainly desperate to stop Katie Telford from testifying about China’s election interference.

Telford, Trudeau’s chief of staff, has testified before Commons committees at least twice in the past couple of years on controversial topics with no issues.

An all pervasive corruption engulfs the land courtesy of the Liberal Party.
