Yves Cote, elections commissioner.

Let's review what he has to say on this scandal, shall we? 

"Foreign influence is a serious issue," he said. "Canadians deserve elections that are free from foreign interference and influence."

The number of complaints about third-party activities during the last federal election jumped almost nine-fold over the previous one, prompting the elections commissioner to suggest an update of the rules.

A spokeswoman for Yves Cote, the commissioner of Canada Elections, told The Canadian Press there were 105 complaints related to third-party activities in the 2015 campaign. - cbc.ca
