Liberal MP Han Dong announced on Wednesday night that he had informed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau he would no longer be sitting in the Liberal caucus.
The announcement came hours after Global News reported Dong, who is at the centre of Chinese influence allegations, privately advised a senior Chinese diplomat in February 2021 that Beijing should hold off freeing Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, according to two separate national security sources.
During his remarks in the House of Commons, Dong spoke about the reports, saying "media reports today quoting unverified and anonymous sources have attacked my. reputation and called into question my loyalty to Canada." Dong defended himself and said what has been reported "is false."
