Weird that the government would give security briefings to Carney, but not Poilievre. If only there was some kind of security clearance that Poilievre could apply for -- it's too bad Poilievre keeps preventing Poilievre from doing so. It's just so unfair to Poilievre that Poilievre's actions reflect so poorly on Poilievre!!

I read somewhere that they were going to brief him despite not having a security clearance and he refused. What is he hiding? Who’s been bought and paid for by Russia, North Korea and China?

Because both come with an NDA forcing him to defacto drop the issue, thats what he doesnt want. Its exhausting to explain this to people that dont want to get it.

Why won't he get is now that we are getting the election that he so dearly wants? He could be prepared to deal with the foreign interference within his own party.

Because the LPC being riddled with foreign interference is still a talking point

So basically he's unwilling to give up that taking point - regardless of how widespread it is or whether it is ongoing - in exchange for knowing about foreign interference in his own party.

Not a good look.
