A foreign influence registry aimed at combating foreign interference in Canada and mandated by legislation passed more than a year ago is expected to be established this fall, Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree says.
The minister told CBC News in a recent interview that the government is currently vetting candidates for the role of foreign interference transparency commissioner, who will administer and enforce legislation requiring individuals acting on behalf of foreign states to disclose their ties.
