I'll start.
Mr. Chair, I thank the member for the question.
I am happy to be able to share with the committee that we were successful in securing two cleared candidates for each party to be able to share the relevant information. We provided briefings to those individuals before the election, over the preparatory period at the outset of the election and during the election.
We also ensured that we gave as much information as possible to each candidate and to each campaign. We did that in a way that equipped them with not necessarily classified detail about threat actors, as referenced by the Conservative member, but on what foreign interference, for example, looks like, and we ensured that each candidate and campaign had the ability to report it to SITE.
We are also conscious that although we work constantly to improve the efficiency of our communication with Canadians, there is still hesitancy, in some instances, to trust the institutions of government. Therefore, in particular as it relates to foreign interference that can have a real impact on individuals, we wanted to ensure that there are mechanisms for both individual citizens and volunteers to report it through a chain of trusted engagements that they have with either the campaign managers for particular ridings or through the national representatives we were briefing on a regular basis.
