I'm glad to see this hitting the fucking fan. As much as I hate to say it, PP is right: canadians need to see who is compromised. I'm a staunch left voter, but I wrote my conservative fuckstick MP when the report was first leaked.
That would be irresponsible - this is intelligence, not evidence that would hold up in court.
Trudeau himself says that some of the intel could be wrong.
Of course, if they have irrefutable evidence regarding any individuals, I agree with you.
The issue is that foreign interference isn't properly encompassed by the legal system in Canada. The party in charge doesn't seem to be bothered by this fact, and has done nothing to actively remedy it. They could be setting definitions, and standards for what counts as interference, determining where the bar for intelligence credibility should be set, etc. Instead, they've left the door open to interference, and made it clear that when it happens, nothing will be done about it.
Do you think an acting government should be the one who sets the bar on what foreign interference is? That sounds like a huge conflict of interest. What's wrong with leaving it to the courts to decide?
