The Integrity Ledger

What the evidence establishes, and what it does not — side by side, each finding sourced and tiered.

What is established

  • Foreign interferenceConfirmed

    The Hogue Commission concluded that the 2019 election was, without a doubt, subject to foreign interference.

    More detail

    The Commission distinguished foreign-interference activity from the integrity of voting and counting and did not find that it changed which party formed government.

What is not established

  • Foreign interferenceDebunked

    The Commission found that foreign interference did not affect which party formed government; the Liberals would have formed government in 2019.

  • Result falsificationDebunked

    The Commission found Canada's electoral system robust and concluded that votes were cast and counted as intended.

Process assessment

Elections Canada publishes district-level official voting results. The Commission's later review found real foreign-interference activity but no compromise of the voting system or national government outcome.
