Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his office knew back in 2018 that Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan had passed an allegation against Gen. Jonathan Vance to the Privy Council Office.

But Trudeau says he only learned the details through recent news reports.

“In 2018 my office was aware of the minister’s direction to the ombudsman,” Trudeau said during a heated opening exchange in question period that saw him face repeated questions on the matter.

“But my office and I learned of the details of the allegation through news reports in recent months.”

Both Trudeau and his office have maintained in recent weeks that they only learned of the allegations against Vance from the exclusive reporting by Global News on Feb. 2 that brought the issue to light.
