The Foreign Interference Commission has released summaries of confidential testimonies from witnesses with firsthand knowledge of communist Chinese meddling in Canada’s democracy, while the full evidence will remain sealed for 99 years, citing security reasons.

Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue announced last November the decision on how to capture the testimony of two potential witnesses, identified as “Person B” and “Person C,” and safeguard their evidence for the foreign interference inquiry.
