Trudeau accuses Canada's spy agency of withholding intel on China's threats to lawmaker.

TL;DR Summary
Canada's spy agency, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), did not inform lawmaker Michael Chong about Chinese threats against him and his family in 2021, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The CSIS had determined that the threats were not concerning enough to inform Chong. Trudeau has appointed an independent special investigator to probe allegations of Chinese interference in Canada's last two elections. Chong was sanctioned by Beijing in 2021 after his motion passed the Canadian parliament declaring China's treatment of the Uyghur Muslim minority genocide.
