And PP is the one lying. He can’t know if Trudeau is lying as he hasn’t seen the intelligence. And his Chief of Staff would not have the clearance to get that information either. And PP knows Trudeau can’t just release the names publicly. There are national security issues with that and there are a wide variety of reasons people could be flagged most of which fall short of knowingly aiding a foreign power. And sources could be wrong.

Sure, and Trudeau can’t talk because he is blocked by ongoing investigation and security clearance. Poilievre is possibly the biggest benefactor of Indian interference, they helped get him elected leader of the CPC. When will he answer for that?

Trudeau testified under oath, so even the most cynical Trudeau hater has to justify their accusation of perjury, because why would he lie? Trudeau did the political equivalent of mutually assured destruction with Poilievre, because we already know both parties are implicated and the only response must be to release the full list of names, for Poilievre to defend himself against the allegations he did nothing about foreign interference in his caucus. At this point, we have Elizabeth May, Jagmeet Singh, and now Trudeau with wildly different interpretations of the same document so it’s time for the public to judge for themselves. My suspicion based on the term “parliamentarian” is that the people implicated are Senators and not House members, which complicates it further since there’s no way to remove them from a fundamentally unDemocratic institution.

Maybe PP should get his clearance and determine if it’s true or not. In other words: do your fucking job Pierre.
Boy are we starting to see who this guy really is. Scary that he’s about to be our next PM.

Pierre can easily access the report himself and read it if he wants to know what is contained within it.
He doesn’t need to wait for any list of names to be released, he can easily access such a list himself by getting his security clearance.
This just comes across as whiny at this point.

PP only has himself to blame. He’s had plenty of opportunities to get clearance & deal with this issue. It makes him & his party look guilty. What are they afraid of?

And this is exactly why he won’t get his security clearance. He can say whatever he wants and people will eat it up because the truth doesn’t matter.

His claims would be more credible if, you know, he actually obtained the appropriate clearance to verify the statements.
I guess this is the “muzzling” some are crying about. Muzzling a politician’s ability to be rampantly dishonest. But hey, at least we’re getting another three word slogan too!
