Former CSIS Chief Says China Will Spy on Canadians Through Chinese EVs

Canada’s former spy chief is warning that China could use data collected by Chinese-made electric vehicles to gather vast amounts of personal information on Canadians that Beijing could later weaponize.

David Vigneault, former head of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), made the comments during a recent appearance on a BBC podcast. As more Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) are set to enter the Canadian market, Vigneault says they could expose users to surveillance by Beijing.
