Level of caution Canadian institutions when dealing with China now was not top of mind when Trudeau Foundation accepted a pledge in 2016.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said he stepped back from the Trudeau Foundation shortly after being elected. The charity has previously said his formal involvement ended in 2014, about a year after he was elected Liberal leader. He became the member of Parliament for the Montreal riding of Papineau in 2008.

Canadian officials also had concerns with labour rights, the environment and role of Chinese state-owned enterprises in the global economy. In 2018, China’s ambassador to Canada attributed a stall in talks to Trudeau’s efforts to entrench labour, gender, environment and governance issues in the negotiating framework. Still, there was optimism in Ottawa a deal could be reached.

The two men were arrested after Canadian officials detained Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou for allegedly violating American sanctions against Iran. The men who became known around the world as the “two Michaels” returned to Canada the same day Meng returned to China. Rosenberg, who was tasked with authoring a report on the panel’s work, concluded that it worked well overall in 2021. The panel did not feel that any foreign interference in the last two elections reached the threshold to alert Canadians.

The $200,000 donation, which was part of a $1-million pledge that also included money for the Universite de Montreal, came under scrutiny soon after it was made in 2016.
