Today on NOW and NEXT:

Former Harper cabinet minister, Lisa Raitt joins us to discuss the latest leaked top-scret documents that suggest MP Michael Chong was being targeted by Chinese intelligence agencies here in Canada and in China. Chong is demanding to know why he wasn't told about the potential threats.

Raitt says the Trudeau government is losing all credibility on this file.

And Canada's international economic clout is in freefall at a time when we need to be building back better as we emerge from the pandemic. Raitt co-Chairs the Coalition for a Better Future and the group's latest report says labour productivity, an uncertain climate transition, risks around fiscal sustainability and a lack of global competitiveness are challenges for the Canadian economy.
