Liberals say no changes coming for leadership race, despite risk of foreign interference | CBC News

The Liberal Party of Canada will be the first federal party to hold a leadership contest since the Hogue Commission on foreign interference revealed meddling by foreign governments in previous races, and there is every reason to expect governments that have sought to meddle in the past will continue to try to influence outcomes.

The Liberal Party told CBC News on Monday that it doesn't intend to change or reinterpret rules in its 2016 constitution that Elections Canada has suggested could make the vote be at least as vulnerable to such efforts as previous leadership races.

 

The liberals already risk their upcoming leadership race being considered invalid or non-representative for a number of reasons. By necessity is going to be far shorter than normal, there's going to be a lot of corners cut that people will later say prevented some people from running, etc etc. Leaving the door open to foreign interference is just going to make it seem less credible. It is unbelievable with so many years of knowledge that this happened that they haven't made any changes.

And the Liberals also allow people as young as 14 to vote in this leadership race.

That is just nuts.

I prefer foreign interference to the Woke Progressive Liberal NDP lunacy that Canadians pathologically vote for

the Liberals are already the Chinese Communist / Hamas terrorist party now anyways,

no foreign interference required, so called "Canada" will side with anyone who sides against America ; who knew ?

Though there are probably a lot of 14 year-olds with more common sense and curiosity than some of the folk here, that is pretty nuts.  I don't even think you need to be a member of the Party to cast a vote.

despite risk of foreign interference

Completely ignoring the real foreign interference is mainly coming from the USA, from someone not even in office.....

14 year olds are smart enough to see that. Traitorous antiCanadian old farts pretend it's not relevant.

Well according to the actual reports is coming from china and is already infiltrated the liberal government pretty heavily. But we all know that you don't want to talk about reality, you just want to stick with your echo chamber

We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

No idea of whom you speak, but your imagination seems intact.

Lizzie may. She specifically stated that she takes her marching orders from the palestinian representative in Canada. Will post a clip below, and no it's not taken out of context. You can find the whole speech easy enough.

So the race is on! Who will choose our next PM? Russia? China? India?

India has more foreign students here, but China is better organized. Russia mostly just influences through fake news and getting people riled up.

The idea that foreign students are allowed to vote when we have almost a million of them here, a hundred thousand of those from China, is just gobsmackingly retarded. 

Let's see how this plays out. A candidate promises that if elected, he/she will introduce a system to give citizenship to foreign workers and foreign students who have been here a couple of years. Suddenly, tens if not hundreds of thousands of foreign workers and students join the Liberals (for free) and vote for that candidate. When then becomes our prime minister. 

Nothing wrong with that, right?

Or maybe a certain candidate makes private assurances to the Chinese that if they become PM they will turn foreign policy decidedly towards China. Now a hundred thousand Chinese troop obediently into the voting booth to vote for 'their' guy. 

That okay with everyone? It's okay with Liberals.

Sort of. I don't know that I would call it a race, more of a friendly card game

Not according to the liberals there isn't. And what we know from past investigations is a lot of those kids are going to suddenly find a whole whack of money in their pockets for donations

Well based on the investigations what seems to happen is the person will agree to take on a staff member for his office that is controlled by the Chinese government. That person will filter information and options to the candidate if he wins to make sure that his judgment is more likely to be favorable to Beijing.

And that is the million-dollar question

Keep pretending.
Trump says vote for PP or else.

Absolutely does not and the main reason is because there's absolutely no need to. Everybody knows Poilievre is going to win.

The question here is who will be facing him and whether or not the liberals will be completely wiped out or whether they can save at least some of the furniture
