During the investigation run by the judge of the provincial court of Quebec, Marie-Josee Hogue, Trudeau reproached the previous Conservative Government for having allegedly been “cuddling up” to the actual Indian government.
“In a public setting, I am limited in what I can say about reasons a document or other information is classified.”
However, when I say the principle that Canada has liberated anyone who has taken refuge here and is determined to offer them equal rights and freedom from the coercion of their mother country, it showcases the authority of our government to support the freedom of Canadians and the due course of justice this is symbolically been crystallized in the very huge case of the killing of Najjar which I forwarded to the parliament.
Trudeau’s Defense Against Charges of Foreign Intervention:
“If our administration undertakes all necessary to defend Canadian values and Canadians from foreign aggression and our foreign interference is even misplaced, we will forever defend religious minorities in Canada and their right to say and do what they like even if their home country is not pleased,” Echoes Trudeau in the video that has been covered by Canadian newspaper The Global and Mail.
As well as it, Trudeau refuted charges of foreign intervention in Canadian politics that arose as a result of unsubstantiated leaks and newspaper stories.
