Thank you, Chair.
As I was indicating, Ms. Wilford, our national broadcast organization, the CBC, in a January 28 broadcast of Power & Politics, while interviewing Public Safety Minister Mendicino very early on in the protest, accused the Kremlin of funding the convoy. It was a claim that the CBC had to walk back days later.
She said, “I do ask that because, you know, given Canada's support of Ukraine in this current crisis with Russia, I don't know if it's far-fetched to ask, but there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this protest grows, but perhaps even instigating it from the outset.”
Do you disagree with that as well, Ms. Wilford?
