Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's national security adviser, Nathalie Drouin, and Deputy Minister of Global Affairs, David Morrison, allegedly leaked classified intelligence regarding India's alleged foreign interference operations in Canada to The Washington Post. This briefing occurred days before the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) publicly alleged that Indian government agents were linked to certain activities in Canada. The revelation comes shortly after Trudeau criticized those who leaked classified information on Chinese foreign interference, referring to them as 'criminals' and calling for their prosecution. The allegations have raised concerns about a potential double standard in handling leaks of sensitive information.
