Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he shared the “best information” he had when he told Canadians a report about a Chinese government plot to target MPs was never shared outside of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service — despite information to the contrary.
But in a news conference Friday, the prime minister refused to answer questions about the source of the communication disconnect in his government.
“I get a briefings regularly from various sources. I’m not going to go into details on that,” he said. “I shared the best information I had at the time both to [Conservative MP Michael] Chong and to Canadians.”
