National Security Report Alleges Foreign Interference Involving Parliamentarians


Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has remained tight-lipped about whether current members of the Liberal caucus are implicated in a classified version of a startling national security report.

The situation remains contentious, with calls for transparency and further investigation.
