Opposition parties vow to co-operate with government on naming judge for public inquiry into Chinese interference
The intergovernmental affairs minister opened the door to a public inquiry in the aftermath of former governor-general David Johnston’s resignation as special rapporteur on Chinese state interference into the 2019 and 2021 elections
Okay, so we are having a public enquiry now?
From the article, it sounds like there were a number of allegations that Johnston didn't investigate, so that makes sense.
Getting the opposition parties to agree on the head of the enquiry before it starts seems like a good idea.
You're viewing a single thread.
Wait, but if NDP and Liberals are both against a public inquiry, what's the end-game?
what’s the end-game?
Presumably to keep the Conservative base mad at "the woke left"?
At least that appears to be PP's entire game.
Ideally the end game should be changes to ensure that our political process and institutions are free of inappropriate foreign influence.
All of the opposition parties have been calling for a public inquiry.
