Canada's Procedure and House Affairs committee is meeting on Thursday to discuss the topic of election interference in Canada.
The primary speaker this afternoon was Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs at Global Affairs Canada David Morrison. Rob Stewart, Deputy Minister, International Trade, also testified before committee.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was provided “multiple” intelligence briefs regarding Beijing’s role in Canada’s 2019 and 2021 federal elections, Trudeau’s national security and intelligence adviser confirmed Thursday at a multi-partisan committee on foreign interference.
Jody Thomas was testifying before a group of MPs that began hearings last November in response to revelations in Global News reports that outlined Canadian intelligence probes into what sources alleged was China’s vast campaign of interference targeting Canadian elections and politicians.
Facing questions from parliamentarians, Thomas confirmed that since January 2022, Trudeau and some of his cabinet have received a number of briefs and memos on Chinese election interference schemes in 2019 and 2021, as Global News first reported in November.
Questions have been raised about whether Trudeau’s government has responded with appropriate measures to counter these national security threats.
