Former governor general David Johnston to oversee foreign interference probes

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has named his special rapporteur to oversee a suite of foreign interference probes: former governor general David Johnston.

The Prime Minister’s Office says Johnston was appointed after consultations with all parties in the House of Commons.

He will have a “wide mandate” to look into allegations of interference in the past two elections and make recommendations to the government, the PMO said in a statement.

Just another Laurentian crony.
