Dominic Barton, Canada’s ambassador to China under scrutiny by US Senate Intelligence Committee for ties to McKinsey & Co. relationship with  Communist regime

Canada’s envoy to China draws attention of U.S. Senate intelligence committee chair Marco Rubio

Senator Marco Rubio, chair of the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee, is drawing attention to an earlier chapter in the life of Dominic Barton, now Canada’s ambassador to China, as the U.S. politician presses giant global consulting firm McKinsey and Co. on its business ties to the ruling Chinese Communist Party and state-owned enterprises.

Senator Rubio has used open letters to query New York-based McKinsey and Co. on its financial relationship with Beijing and to ask whether company executives acted against U.S. economic and national security interests as an adviser to Chinese companies. According to The New York Times, McKinsey’s clientele in China included as many as 22 of the country’s 100 largest state-owned enterprises.

Mr. Barton, now Canada’s envoy to Beijing, was head of McKinsey for nine years as global managing partner. He stepped down as a global managing partner emeritus in September, 2019, when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau named him ambassador.

Your China Class at work. They have been selling us out to Communist China for decades.

Joe Biden, the Manchurian President

Joe Biden, the Manchurian President

In the political/Cold War thriller The Manchurian Candidate, a U.S. soldier being held as a prisoner-of-war is brainwashed by Chinese and Russian agents and becomes a traitorous “sleeper” agent hidden within the civilian population. The film’s popularity led to the phrase “Manchurian candidate” used to define any person or politician as a disloyal puppet of an enemy power.

MIT’s China problem

‘Why do schools censor themselves? They often do it out of fear of offending China,’ says Mike Pompeo

Mike Pompeo delivered a speech at Georgia Tech on Wednesday about the Chinese Communist party’s undue influence on American higher education. According to the secretary of state, the Massachusetts Institute for Technology rejected his attempts to give the same speech on their campus. The reason why is now a matter of public dispute.

The Biden family put national security at risk: Devine

The Biden family put national security at risk: Devine

It’s more than strange that Hunter Biden released a statement today in the form of an official press release from his father’s “Biden-Harris transition” operation, for the purpose of confirming he is under federal investigation for tax fraud.

“I learned yesterday for the first time that the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs,” read his statement.

The statement had an addendum from his father: “President-elect Biden is deeply proud of his son, who has fought through difficult challenges, including the vicious personal attacks of recent months, only to emerge stronger.”

Melinda Gates Is ‘Incredibly Disappointed’ That Americans Will Get the Vaccine First

Billionaire globalist Melinda Gates is “incredibly disappointed” that President Trump has put Americans first in line to receive the Wuhan coronavirus vaccine.

Gates, co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, told CNN’s Poppy Harlow that it’s America’s and other high-income countries’ responsibility to make sure impoverished nations get access to the vaccine just as quickly as everyone else.

Ontario’s current coronavirus lockdowns not as effective, easing measures could mean higher cases: officials

The Ontario government’s current coronavirus lockdown restrictions in areas like Toronto and Peel Region are not as effective as the previous provincial lockdown, officials say, leading to concerns about higher case growth.

In an update provided by Ontario’s science and modelling consensus tables Thursday afternoon, the present lockdown hasn’t impacted affected residents’ travelling and likely contacts with others compared to restrictions put in place in March.

Why ‘preppers’ are going mainstream

Silicon Valley entrepreneur Julie Fredrickson remembers clearly the moment she decided to become a “prepper” – somebody who prepares for the worst-case scenario.

It was late October 2012 and Hurricane Sandy had just hit New York. “There was a large, almost phosphorescent flash and that was the main power plant that powered all of lower Manhattan going out.

“There was this bright, other-wordly eerie green and then everything just went black,” she says.

That Billion Dollar A Year White Elephant Nobody Watches Is Apparently In The Midst Of A Civil War

It’s not a civil war that threatens the CBC. It’s complacency

…More than 500 current and former CBC staffers, including on-air journalists Carol Off and Gillian Findlay, have signed an open letter calling on Canadians to stand with them as they put pressure on management to abandon an “insidious” initiative that “makes a mockery” of the broadcaster’s hard-won reputation for journalistic integrity. They argue that Canadians could confuse the paid content on CBC websites and podcasts with its journalistic offerings.

They’re kidding right? CBC? Tax Payer Subsidized Trump Derangement Syndrome CBC?

I won’t be happy until the streets run red with CBC blood;)

As Canadians sour on China, an ambassador  ̷c̷h̷a̷n̷g̷e̷s̷ ̷h̷i̷s̷ ̷t̷o̷n̷e̷  pretends to be on board with the proles to protect Canada’s ‘China class’

Today marks two years since the two Michaels were detained by China.

It’s also been ten long pandemic months since Canada’s ambassador to Beijing, Dominic Barton, made his previous appearance before the Commons subcommittee on Canada-China relations. Tuesday’s second round of that hearing showed how much the mood around China has changed during 2020.

Barton appeared conscious of the need to make some repairs to the impression he left in February, when his testimony drew unusually direct criticism from former diplomats with experience working in China.

Back then, Barton suggested that it was incumbent upon Canadians to recognize that “China values unity and the needs of society at large, rather than freedom of individual choice … we just have to understand that.”

Bullshit, he’s running cover for the pricks who have been selling us out to Communist China for decades and he’s one of them.

Failure of Imagination

Failure of Imagination

We’re fighting among ourselves while our real adversary is watching with glee.

We are a vast country, but too many of us have a limited understanding of the rest of the world. We have the right to vote and freedom of speech. We can move around our country as we wish, and we with can start a company or quit a job as we desire. We get to determine who our friends are and where we spend our time. With such great freedom comes a failure of imagination. We forget that our system is special, unique, so we believe that every other country is like ours.

We are wrong.

We have a “China Class” comprised of politicians, academics and the usual assortment of corporate sociopaths who have happily sold us out for their 30 pieces of silver.
