Especially when your country is 5% Indian-Canadian; that's a lot of voters to enrage.

Imho this only happened because of the CSIS leaks like the one about MP Chong's family being targeted in China. Trudeau probably figured this story would be better from him than from the press - keeping the geopolitical dirty laundry out of the public view was never an option because of the leaker.
