TNC: 'Conservative MP Dane Lloyd grilled officials from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and Public Safety Canada for ignoring the torching of nearly 30 churches in the summer of 2021 on the heels of residential school grave reports.
'Lloyd questioned three officials with the security agencies during a May 12 Commons public safety committee meeting on ideologically motivated violent extremism (IMVE).
'“Is Public Safety currently investigating the burning of over 30 churches in Canada last year?” asked Lloyd.
