TL;DR Summary

A public inquiry in Ottawa is investigating allegations that China clandestinely interfered in Canada's 2019 and 2021 federal elections to support candidates favorable to Beijing's interests, particularly targeting the Conservative Party. The inquiry also revealed allegations of interference by India and Pakistan, while Russia was found to possess robust foreign interference capacity but lacked intent to interfere. The Canadian government's panel of senior civil servants did not publicly alert about the alleged meddling, citing uncorroborated or limited reliability of the intelligence and the potential to create confusion.
