Saint-Jacques is blinking frequently throughout his screen time, while denying knowing of Kovig's intelligence work, so...damage control is damaged. I would have expected a professional diplomat to be better at lying. And picking a blinky one reflects poor judgement at Damage Control Central.

If they were not guilty, why are the Canadian government paying them millions?

[@Tom-vg8ts]

Now the Canadian government agrees to pay the two Michael $millions to keep their months shut and not to disclose the U.S. dirty tricks. The Canadian government should apologize.
