RCMP addressing concerns about the lack of foreign interference followup: senior Mounties

Police take notes and give thanks when someone reports being threatened or harmed by a person acting on behalf of a foreign regime, but it ends there, one witness said

OTTAWA — The RCMP is working to address the concerns of diaspora community members who say police often neglect to follow up with them about complaints of foreign interference, senior Mounties told a public inquiry Thursday.

Mark Flynn, the RCMP’s deputy commissioner for federal policing, said the national force plans to have internal discussions with key units on how to better communicate with vulnerable people.
