We don’t need a public inquiry into foreign interference in Canadian elections
… The interference that should concern us is not something that happens to Canadian democracy, but rather the kind that happens with the collaboration of certain of its domestic participants.
The collaboration may be passive – winking at or acquiescing in foreign interference, rather than taking action against it. Or it may be active: taking orders, or receiving benefits, from foreign actors.
In the present crisis, we have been given plenty of evidence of both, thanks to a series of extraordinary intelligence leaks.
