Mr. Speaker, last week, the public safety committee summoned 2022 Conservative leadership candidate Patrick Brown to appear to answer questions on foreign interference, a motion that Conservative members on the committee, unsurprisingly, voted against.
Yesterday morning, a bombshell news report came out that alleges agents of the Indian government interfered in Patrick Brown's leadership campaign. The interference, unsurprisingly again, was to the benefit of the current Leader of the Opposition. The reporting specifically alleges that Patrick Brown's national campaign co-chair, the Conservative MP for Calgary Nose Hill, was pressured to withdraw her support for him in that race.
We need to get to the bottom of these allegations. Who exactly was in contact with the member for Calgary Nose Hill and what was said? Only then will we start to understand the true depths of the foreign interference that took place.
