Don’t dumb down the China election meddling issue, stick to the facts

The prime minister should have reacted much more quickly and publicly to China's interference, but all politicians should try to stick to the facts, and not add fuel to a fire that a foreign country started. All 338 MPs should be working together to ensure our election process has not been subverted by outside influences. This is about Canada's democratic system.
