Trudeau Testifies on Foreign Interference in Canadian Elections

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau addressed the public inquiry into foreign interference, asserting that the 2019 and 2021 elections were free and fair despite attempts by foreign states.

Trudeau testified that intelligence did not indicate a preference by China for any specific party, describing such claims as 'improbable'.
Despite allegations of Chinese interference, Trudeau maintains that the integrity of the Canadian elections was preserved.
The inquiry into foreign interference was set up under pressure from opposition parties following a series of intelligence leaks.
Trudeau rejected the notion that foreign interference had affected the election outcomes, emphasizing that elections were decided by Canadians.
The final report from the inquiry is expected by the end of 2024, aiming to provide clarity on the extent of foreign meddling.
