Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre and New Democratic Party Leader Jagmeet Singh are expected to attend question period in the House of Commons in Ottawa on Tuesday, after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau committed to new steps his government will take to combat foreign interference on Monday, including additional independent investigations and further steps toward establishing a foreign agents registry.

However, Poilievre said that Trudeau‘s plans to probe allegations of Chinese foreign interference do not go far enough, and Canada ultimately needs a public inquiry.

Poilievre doubled down Tuesday on the opposition’s calls for a public inquiry after Trudeau on Monday announced additional independent probes and reviews into the issue – but not an inquiry.

“We want an open, independent public inquiry to get to the truth and make sure it never happens again,” Poilievre told reporters in Ottawa. “We need to bring home control of our democracy, bring home control of our country, rather than allowing foreign dictatorships to manipulate our interests.”
