Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan said during question period on Dec. 10 that the engagement was part of a cooperation initiative signed with China back in 2013.

Justin Trudeau invited China s People s Liberation Army to train troops in Canada, according to top secret documents published by Canadian conservative news site which claims they were sending spies not just soldiers to train
The bombshell 34-page access to information document was released by the Canadian government to Rebel News and The Globe and Mail
The two outlets published excerpts from the files Wednesday
