May told a news conference the full version of the classified report does not contain a "list of MPs who have shown disloyalty to Canada."

May said one former MP accused in the report of proactively sharing privileged information with a foreign operative should be fully investigated by authorities. She said that former MP is not named in the full report.

Turns out Pierre Poilievre comments about being muzzled if he saw the reports might have been him talking about his hobbies. Hopefully he doesn't show in parliament one day in a full gimp suit.

I like May, she has not given us any reason to distrust her and she isn't part of a party that is likely involved in this.

So if she says there's nothing egregious going on after reading the report, I'm currently okay with believing her.

Let's get some preventative stuff in place for the next election and keep on keeping on.

Even disregarding political context, I think her straight forward answers with specific references to the report make it hard to dispute her findings.

Most of all I really appreciate her being the only Federal party leader will to constructively progress on this issue instead of circling around the topic ad nauseam as political theater. I believe this type of politics should do well.

There is a reason she forged the Green Party into a federal Party. She's an actual leader. Unlike all of the other clowns and the nazi on the federal leadership stage.

Of course, the subsequent leader then used the party as her own damn piggy bank and had the balls to hide behind "discrimination" when caught.

I'm really not a fan of May, but I agree with you. She's a bit of a conspiracy theorist nutter. So if she of all people thinks there's nothing substantial in there, there probably isn't.

Mind explaining why you think she's a conspiracy theory nutter? Not asking in a bad way, I've just never heard that about her before

IIRC, She has said that she thinks 9/11 was an inside job, and that wifi and cell towers can cause cancer.

She is a politician, that's enough reason to distrust her.

And that's why Pierre Polievre refuses to get a security clearance. If he did he wouldn't be able to whip up his ignorant base with misinformation.

Yeah, sorry, but I don't trust May, Trudeau, Poilievre, Singh or Blanchet. There's no point in any of the party leaders seeing the list or report unless they are able to actually tell us the people who are involved.
