A new document given to Canada's Foreign Interference Commission suggests that Chinese officials may have offered $250,000 to "threat actors" in 2018 and 2019, according to a new report from The Globe and Mail.

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service document on election interference said that prior to and during the 2019 election “a group of known and suspected People’s Republic of China related threat actors in Canada, including PRC officials, worked in loose coordination with one another to covertly advance PRC interests though Canadian democratic institutions.”

“Some of these threat actors received financial support from the PRC,” and says “reporting indicated that 11 political candidates and 13 political staff members were assessed to be either implicated in or impacted by this group of threat actors," the document says.
