Trudeau accuses far-right website of spreading vaccine misinformation

Canadian PM's response to Rebel Media goes viral after court victory allows them to attend election debate

Canada's prime minister, Justin Trudeau, has slammed a far-right website in the final days of the country's federal election, accusing it of spreading misinformation about coronavirus vaccines and contributing to the growing number of protests across the country.

After Wednesday night's French language debate between federal leaders, Trudeau was asked by a member of Rebel Media - a website whose contributors include Katie Hopkins and Tommy Robinson - if he would continue to exclude the group from covering the election.
