Review body probing foreign interference calls on government to release more cabinet documents

One of the review bodies investigating the federal government’s approach to foreign interference says the government has provided it with only a “limited” number of cabinet confidence documents.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau agreed last month to waive cabinet confidence so that two federal agencies — the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) and the National Security and Intelligence Review Agency (NSIRA) — can read the confidential documents David Johnston, the government’s former special rapporteur on foreign interference, reviewed as he produced his report on foreign interference.
