Need to Know: The biggest lesson from the foreign interference inquiry’s final report Your weekly politics roundup

A far better read on the #HogueInquiry than the skewed reporting elsewhere, is this breakdown thehub.ca/2025/01/30/n... by @danstanton.bsky.social and others. #ForeignInterference #CanadaSky #cdnpoli

When intelligence is misused, misrepresented, or worse, weaponized, for partisan purposes, it is a danger to democracy. I’ll end this 🧵 with this important reminder from a short thread @akshaysingh.bsky.social did on Twitter in 2023.

#CdnNatSec #cdnpoli #HogueInquiry

Fast forward to 2023: Someone (formerly?) at #CSIS showed “secret & top secret” material to Fife, a highly partisan #Conservative journalist who’d been strategically leaked material provided to him in the past for political purposes. So what was actually going on there? #cdnpoli #HogueInquiry #FI

Remember: in Feb 2023, Fife implied China had the ability to choose 🇨🇦’s government right down to whether majority or minority. Utterly reckless nonsense. Of course, Fife offered not one single shred of factual evidence. #Cdnpoli #CdnMediaFailed #HogueInquiry

#RobertFife is a relentlessly bad faith partisan actor. The @theglobeandmail.com reporting on #HogueInquiry is so skewed by Fife & Chase’s partisan lens, I suggest learning the details of the report elsewhere. Fife & Chase were both stooges in an op employing ethically compromised partisan leakers.
