Fox News
Canadian Prime Minister Justice Trudeau’s "special rapporteur on foreign interference," David Johnston, resigned amid allegations of a cover-up of Beijing's alleged election meddling.
"I have concluded that, given the highly partisan atmosphere around my appointment and work, my leadership has had the opposite effect," Johnston wrote, informing Trudeau his resignation would be effective no later than the end of June or sooner if he delivers a brief final report before then.

"A deep and comprehensive review of foreign interference, its effects, ands how to prevent it, should be an urgent priority for your Government and our Parliament," he told Trudeau.
