The front of Monday Globe showed a picture of Chan beside the headline CSIS warned this cabinet minister could be a threat. The citizenship, immigration and international trade minister said the Globe stories are little more than a re-hash of ludicrous allegations published — and debunked — five years ago, he wrote Tuesday in a two-page open letter.
