Conservatives, NDP call for MPs accused of colluding with foreign governments to be named

During Monday’s question period, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and Conservative MPs pushed the Liberal government to release the names of Canadian MPs who are accused of colluding with foreign governments, as described in a bombshell report released last week.

“Why is this government fighting to protect the names collaborating in the best interest of hostile foreign regimes and not Canadians?” asked Conservative MP for Calgary Forest Lawn Jasraj Singh Hallan.

Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc pushed back, saying he would face criminal prosecution if he stood up and released the names of accused MPs in the House.

LeBlanc said the Liberals would support a motion asking the commission led by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue to examine the allegations.
