Poilievre defends decision not to get security clearance​


Poilievre was the only opposition leader who declined to get security clearance that’s necessary to be briefed on top secret information related to foreign interference. The Liberals have been using this as an attack line on the Conservative leader.
When asked Sunday about his decision, Poilievre repeated his claim that getting the clearance would prevent him from speaking out — a claim that former security officials have refuted.
“What I’m not going to do is go into a politically directed process by the Liberals that they use to decide what I can see and say and comment on,” Poilievre told reporters.
