On May 19, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended a Liberal Party fundraising soirée at the home of a wealthy Chinese-Canadian. Did anything untoward happen on May 19 as the prime minister glad-handed his way around a room chock-a-bloc with billionaires? When former prime minister Jean Chrétien led Team Canada trips to China, Xian accompanied him. Billionaire Zhang may have made his generous donation to the Trudeau foundation because he truly admired Pierre Trudeau. The donation (to what even Trudeau’s critics agree is a reputable charity) didn’t earn him access to the prime minister.
