Mr. Chair, the motion is as follows:
Given that,
media reporting states that a Liberal Party member informed the Liberal candidate for Don Valley North that he was the subject of a CSIS investigation in 2019 and that,
this information could only be obtained from classified national security briefings, with the leak undermining the work of Canada’s intelligence agency and violating Canada’s national security laws and that,
since only select individuals in the Liberal government and Liberal Party would have received this classified information from CSIS, and would have been responsible for sharing this information,
the committee call the following witnesses:
National Director of Liberal Party, Liberal Designate for SITE taskforce, Azam Ishmael
Liberal Designate for SITE taskforce, Braeden Caley
Liberal Designate for SITE taskforce, Mathieu Lafrance
Liberal Campaign Director, Jeremy Broadhurst
Former Chief of Staff to the Minister of Public Safety, Marci Surkes
Former Chief of Staff to the Minister of Public Safety, Zita Astravas
Former Chief of Staff to the Minister of Democratic Institutions, Rob Jamieson
Deputy Chief of Staff to the Prime Minister, Brian Clow
Director of CSIS, David Vigneault
Commissioner of the RCMP, Michael Duheme
National Security and Intelligence Advisor to the Prime Minister, Nathalie Drouin
Other witnesses deemed relevant by the committee
