Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Mayor Brown.
It's not surprising that the Conservatives can't seem to come up with questions about foreign interference when it involves India. I have sat through many studies on foreign interference where they thought it was the most important issue. Now, however, when it involves India, they can't even fill speaking spots for it.
You confirmed today that a sitting MP, Michelle Rempel Garner, was contacted by the consul general of India about terminology around the Sikh nation. It was described as a 45-minute debrief during an angry phone call. That was expressed to you. Your campaign ultimately changed that language.
You mentioned that some of these interactions have been aggressive and have not made you comfortable. If, in fact, some of the allegations in the media reporting are true, you acknowledged they would have constituted foreign interference. Conservatives don't seem to be worried about that one bit. I think that's pretty telling in itself.
I'll get to a question for you, Mayor Brown, about something my colleague Mr. Gerretsen asked you. What specific event in your community were you invited to and then disinvited to, which you acknowledged was accurate?
