Justin Trudeau cherche par tous les moyens à esquiver la tenue d'une commission d'enquête sur l'ingérence du gouvernement chinois.

Le grand perdant sera le Parti libéral, le seul des cinq partis au Parlement à ne jamais avoir eu de femme comme cheffe. Justin Trudeau cherche par tous les moyens à esquiver la tenue d’une commission d’enquête sur l’ingérence du gouvernement chinois dans les élections canadiennes. Entre-temps, des têtes dirigeantes du Parti libéral commencent à souffler doucement que M. Ayant réussi à mettre en place un système de garderies à 10 $/jour à travers le Canada, un système d’assurance dentaire pour les enfants et à signer des ententes en santé, ils souhaitent que Trudeau comprenne qu’il est temps pour lui d’aller faire une «promenade dans la neige». Le but des libéraux est de balayer sous le tapis la question de l’ingérence du gouvernement chinois assez longtemps pour que les travaux et les témoignages d’une éventuelle commission d’enquête ne puissent gêner la tenue d’une élection à l’automne. On parle donc ici d’agir en pirate.
