Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says no decision had been made yet on whether to expel a Chinese diplomat who allegedly targeted a member of Parliament and his family
Mao said reports that Beijing targeted Conservative MP Michael Chong are a “fabricated story” and a “political stunt,” adding that diplomatic personnel abide by the law and international conventions.
Chong said Wednesday he learned that allegations China was targeting his family members in Hong Kong were shared with the prime minister’s national security adviser in 2021.Article content Trudeau has maintained that the information never rose to a political level, and reiterated on Friday that he has directed security agencies to change their reporting process so he is made aware of any future threats against MPs.“Information that was released on Monday through the media never made it to me, to my office or to the minister at the time. Going forward, such information would absolutely have to be raised to the highest political levels.
But Trudeau would not directly answer when asked in French whether other federal politicians were being targeted in 2021, when Chong and other MPs were sanctioned by China after they criticized its human-rights record.
