Opposition keeps pressure on Liberals to call public inquiry into interference cdnpoli
Trudeau responded by saying he is open to other parties’ suggestions for the role.“We will ensure that whoever is chosen, is someone who both has the capacity to ensure that we’re doing all the right things to fight interference, and has the capacity to give all Canadians confidence in the openness, transparency and rigour of that process,” Trudeau said Tuesday.
Trudeau has argued this is a way to remove partisan politics from the public debate, but critics say the prime minister is buying time.The Conservatives and NDP both accept the results of the 2019 and 2021 election. And a panel of bureaucrats have determined the past two elections remained free and fair, an assessment that national security agencies agree with.
