Canada intel agency leaks report that China helped Trudy win the last election and he covered it up.
Pierre rips into him for colluding with China and calls him out.
I dont see the benefit of releasing this info if CSIS works for Trudeau, unless they know nothing will be done. This is quite literally against the law in canada within our Election laws.
