It is obvious, given that we know that the PMO asks about the donations the foundation receives. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7708280\" data-originallang=\"fr\">It was through this foundation that the Prime Minister found his rapporteur on Chinese interference. Everyone knows that it will be impossible to get to the bottom of this interference when someone from the foundation that itself benefited from said interference is in charge of the investigation. Everyone knows that but the Liberals. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7708281\" data-originallang=\"fr\">What do they not understand?</p>",

C'est \u00e9vident, quand on sait que le bureau du premier ministre s'informe des dons que la fondation re\u00e7oit. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7708280\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Or, c'est de cette fondation qu'est issu le rapporteur du premier ministre sur l'ing\u00e9rence chinoise. Tout le monde sait qu'il sera impossible de faire la lumi\u00e8re sur l'ing\u00e9rence avec quelqu'un issu de la fondation qui a elle-m\u00eame b\u00e9n\u00e9fici\u00e9 de cette ing\u00e9rence. C'est tout le monde, sauf les lib\u00e9raux. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7708281\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Qu'est-ce qu'ils ne comprennent pas?</p>"
