Closer cooperation amongst allied democracies is needed to combat Beijing's interference

"Canada must work more closely with democratic allies like the United States in countering Beijing's efforts to interfere in our democratic life.
Foreign interference in a serious national security threat to Canada. It threatens our economy, our long-term prosperity, social cohesion, our parliament, and our elections. It requires a suite of measures to combat, including closer cooperation amongst allied democracies. Canada must work toward a stronger defense and security partnership with the United States and allies."
