Following the resignation of special rapporteur David Johnston on Friday, Canada's Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic LeBlanc spoke on Friday, taking questions regarding foreign interference and the Canadian government’s plan when it comes to how it will decide its next special rapporteur.

Johnston, who was chosen by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, resigned from his position on June 9, after facing weeks of scrutiny over what the opposition parties called a conflict of interest due to his alleged ties to Trudeau’s family and the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.

The House of Commons last week passed a non-binding resolution calling for Johnston to step down over the “appearance of bias."
