OTTAWA — The prime minister's brother told members of Parliament on Wednesday that the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation has not been part of any foreign interference attempts by China.
The Globe and Mail had reported in February, citing an unnamed source, that the donors appeared to offer the money in the hopes of influencing the new Liberal leader ahead of a federal election in which he might defeat the ruling Conservatives. He said talks with the Université de Montréal about a donation intended to honour his father began in December 2013,"a long way from any notion of a Trudeau government, or even a Trudeau Opposition leader."
Trudeau said Zhang had previously donated $800,000 to the University of Toronto and was"excited' to broker a similar deal with Université de Montréal.
