Parliament Hill reports two Soviet diplomats expelled in major espionage case
Canada expelled two Soviet diplomats after a bribery and security probe described as the country’s largest espionage matter since Igor Gouzenko. An External Affairs notice outlines a network plan, with thousands in bribes to recruit Canadians including female civil servants, plus technical and economic intelligence acts. Prime Minister Pearson said the expelled individuals are immune from prosecution, while others cooperated with police and face no further action.
