Mr. Speaker, the House voted for an independent commission of public inquiry on Chinese interference, and that is what Canadians want too. Rather than heeding the consensus, the Prime Minister is hiding behind his special rapporteur and good friend, David Johnston. However, Mr. Johnston is a former member of the Trudeau Foundation, which is itself in the midst of a Chinese interference scandal. That means that a former member of the Trudeau Foundation, which allegedly received money from China, is going to tell the government how to avoid Chinese influence. We cannot make this stuff up. Does the Prime Minister realize that this undertaking has absolutely zero credibility?
