Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says no decision has been made yet on whether to expel a Chinese diplomat who allegedly targeted a member of Parliament and his family.
Trudeau says removing another country's envoy from Canada is a big step and all the potential effects of such a decision must be considered.
Conservative MP Michael Chong says he was informed this week that allegations China was targeting his family members in Hong Kong were shared with the prime minister's national security adviser in 2021.
Trudeau maintains that the information never rose to a political level, and says he has directed security agencies to change their reporting process so he is made aware of any future threats against MPs.
