Poilievre accuses Trudeau of ‘lying’ about Tories linked to interference
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre accused Justin Trudeau of “lying” during an appearance at the foreign interference inquiry after the Prime Minister claimed to have names of Conservative lawmakers involved in foreign interference.
The top federal Tory took Trudeau to task on Wednesday in a statement posted to social media, which was headed with a terse comment: “Release the names.
“My message to Justin Trudeau is: Release the names of all MPs that have collaborated with foreign interference,” Poilievre said in his statement.
“But he won’t. Because Justin Trudeau is doing what he always does: He is lying. He is lying to distract from a Liberal caucus revolt against his leadership and revelations he knowingly allowed Beijing to interfere and help him win two elections.”
