Following a Global News investigation that reported sources saying Liberal MP Han Dong privately advised a senior Chinese diplomat in February 2021 that Beijing should hold off freeing Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre asked when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau learned of this information.

Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly responded that Liberals worked "tirelessly" for the “Two Michaels" release, seemingly sidestepping the question.

"The importance of this question cannot be overstated. If the prime minister knew that a member of his own caucus was working to keep two Canadian citizens arbitrarily and illegally incarcerated in windowless cells, potentially being tortured, [if] he knew that and did nothing, that would be a devastating scandal against our national interest," Poilievre said.

The same question was asked throughout the duration of question period over 22 times, with Liberals doubling-down on their claims of helping the two Michaels.
