Canada-India emergency meeting: Tories say Trudeau ‘trying to distract’ from Liberal party ‘revolt’

A Canadian parliamentary committee held an emergency meeting in Ottawa on Friday morning, addressing the new allegations of Indian foreign interference in Canada, as diplomatic tensions between the two countries further escalated this week. “The Prime Minister is trying to distract from the fact that he has an ongoing revolt in his caucus looking to overthrow him. So it’s no wonder why he’s doing this,” alleged Conservative MP Raquel Dancho during the emergency meeting. She added “If he continues as a colleague sent to weaponize this, then he should release the names, because Canadians deserve to know who it is in Parliament right now… who has been undermining the national interest on purpose, to a to foreign country.”
