2019 and 2021 Canada election interference inquiry resumes; assesses federal agencies and allegations of Chinese meddling.

Canada's inquiry into foreign interference in its elections resumes this week, led by Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue. The hearings will assess federal agencies' abilities to detect and counter such interference, particularly regarding allegations of Chinese meddling in the 2019 and 2021 elections. An interim report indicated that while foreign actions may have influenced some ridings, they did not alter overall election outcomes. Key officials, including Prime Minister Trudeau, will testify in the coming weeks.
