Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made sensational accusations that China tried to interfere in the Canadian election. Regarding this, he said,
During an investigation into illegal Chinese police stations in Canada, intelligence officials discovered that China had attempted to interfere in recent Canadian elections.
Try to make the favored candidates win
In order to gain influence within political circles, China has made efforts to win over its favored candidates. The interference has targeted both the main political parties, the ruling Liberal Party and the opposition Conservative Party.
Let’s keep working
China is playing games of aggression with Canada’s democratic institutions. We have taken significant steps to strengthen the integrity of our electoral processes and systems.
And in the fight against election interference, Justin Trudeau said we will continue to work against foreign interference in our democracy and institutions.
