National Security Report Alleges Foreign Interference Involving Parliamentarians


Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has remained tight-lipped about whether current members of the Liberal caucus are implicated in a classified version of a startling national security report. The report, produced by the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP), alleges that some Parliamentarians are either “semi-witting or witting” participants in foreign interference efforts. However, Trudeau did not directly address whether any of his current MPs are named in the report. Both New Democratic Party leader Jagmeet Singh and Green Party leader Elizabeth May, who had access to the unredacted version of the report, stated that no members of their caucus were named. The public version of the report did not identify specific parliamentarians or provide details about the countries involved in the alleged interference. The situation remains contentious, with calls for transparency and further investigation.
