Trudeau pointed to Poilievre’s former role as democratic reform minister under Stephen Harper’s Conservative government as a key reason why the opposition leader should dial back his criticisms.
OTTAWA—Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took a broad swipe at Pierre Poilievre Friday, saying the Conservative leader should rise above his lambasting of Ottawa’s response to claims of foreign elections interference due to his previous time in government.
“He was in charge of the integrity of our elections. He was in charge at the time of making sure that China or others weren’t influencing our elections. He understands how important this is, or he should,” Trudeau said after making a housing announcement in Guelph, Ont. Both the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois condemned the appointment, with Poilievre and several Tory MPs accusing the prime minister of naming a “‘family friend’, old neighbour from the cottage, and member of the Beijing-funded Trudeau foundation” to the independent role.
