I think they should take the special rapporteur and the government up on those offers. It's important, if we're going to have a conversation about foreign interference, that all individuals or leaders who have the opportunity and who will influence the way Canadians think about it be as informed as possible. I do believe it is very possible for individuals who see that intelligence and who review it to actually offer some particular insight about it.
Mr. Johnston put out a public report. It contains numerous pages commenting about the specifics of those reports. I think it's important to note that individuals on all sides of the House and all sides of the issue should have the understanding that they, too, can pass judgment on what they see.
With that said, it's also a bit of a moot point, in my opinion. I say that because personally I have no reason to doubt or in no way, shape or form question Mr. Johnston's conclusions. I have immense respect for him as an individual and as a public servant who has dedicated years to this country, but it's not me he should try to convince. It is a threshold of Canadians and I'm worried that's what's being compromised right now.
