Canada's task force monitors Liberal leadership race for foreign interference, ensuring fair voting.

Canada's Elections Intelligence Task Force, which includes representatives from CSIS, RCMP, and other agencies, is monitoring the Liberal party's leadership race for any signs of foreign interference. The Liberal party has limited voting to members with permanent resident, citizen, or Indian Act status, aiming to prevent voter fraud. The leadership race, which concludes on March 9, will determine Canada's next prime minister. The task force will provide briefings on foreign interference and protective strategies to all candidates, with plans to extend these measures to future leadership contests of recognized political parties.
