Canada Should Exit CCP Leader Xi’s Imperial Bank

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in 2017 ignored multiple warnings and committed Canada to membership in Xi Jinping’s pet project—an infrastructure bank that finances Beijing’s Belt and Road Initiative and furthers China’s bid to become an imperial power.

The bank, known as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), pretends to be benign—just another multilateral development bank, such as the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank—but its corporate structure belies such “business-as-usual” claims.

WARMINGTON: Security threat against Trudeau all of Canada’s concern

It’s just not acceptable to see Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as vulnerable as he was on Monday when an angry mob of protesters descended on his vehicle.

It was a serious security incident caught on camera that once again raises concerns about the safety of Canada’s prime minister while illustrating a vitriolic mood among some Canadians.

I dunno. I mean it’s Trudeau.

Hussen refuses to answer reporters’ questions on timing of UNRWA funding pause

Ahmed Hussen Islamist

OTTAWA —  Canada’s international development minister avoided reporters’ questions Tuesday on whether the widely publicized pause in the government’s funding of a contentious UN agency came before or after Canada had made a promised payment to the agency.

On Monday, columnist Hélène Buzzetti posted in French on X, formerly Twitter, that the federal government had already made the first of four promised $25-million payments to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) — despite last Friday’s announcement from International Development Minister Ahmed Hussen that funding would be paused after evidence emerged that agency employees took part in the Oct. 7 terror attacks on Israel.

A spokesperson for Pakistan International Airlines told media last week that the latest disappearance of a cabin crew member at Pearson occurred on Jan. 19.

Authorities investigating massive security breach at Global Affairs Canada

Canadian authorities are investigating a prolonged data security breach following the “detection of malicious cyber activity” affecting the internal network used by Global Affairs Canada staff, according to internal department emails viewed by CBC News.

The breach affects at least two internal drives, as well as emails, calendars and contacts of many staff members.

CBC News spoke to multiple sources with knowledge of the situation, including employees who have received instructions on how the breach affects their ability to work. Some were told to stop working remotely as of last Wednesday.

As Europe’s armies brace for war, allies call on Canada and others to catch up

In Estonia, they’re talking about building more public bomb shelters and making them mandatory in all newly constructed homes.

In neighbouring Latvia, the government is going through the second draft of mandatory military service legislation. Next door in Lithuania, there’s talk of universal conscription.

“I understand that when we speak from the Baltic perspective, it might sound somewhat dramatic and shocking,” Viktorija Cmilyte-Nielsen, the speaker of the Seimas, Lithuania’s legislature, told CBC News Monday in Ottawa.

B.C. freezes approvals on new postsecondary institutions specializing in international students

The B.C. government will not approve new private postsecondary institutions that cater to international students for a period of two years, Selina Robinson, Minister of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills, announced Monday. The moratorium is part of a package of reforms in the sector, after Ottawa announced a two-year cap on foreign student admissions in a bid to tackle skyrocketing growth and ease the pressure on services such as housing and health care.

The changes mirror measures announced last week by the province of Ontario, which is similarly facing significant reductions in the number of new international students the federal government will permit.

Woman ordered deported over Chinese foreign interference

Canadian authorities have issued a deportation order against a Chinese woman on the grounds she was part of Beijing’s foreign interference program.

The Immigration and Refugee Board ruled that Jing Zhang had worked for the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office (OCAO), which it said conducts espionage in Canada.

While immigration officials did not argue that Zhang committed espionage, the Refugee Board found that as an 11-year OCAO employee, she had contributed to its efforts to pressure the Chinese diaspora.

Top Liberal ministers duck questions about replacing Trudeau as Parliament returns

With polls suggesting the Liberal Party’s support is still in freefall, some of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s top ministers were asked Monday whether they’re angling to replace him as Liberal leader.

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, Treasury Board President Anita Anand, Housing Minister Sean Fraser and Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne were all asked if they’re considering leadership bids.

Freeland, who has been floated as a possible successor for years, said Trudeau has her “full support.”

Muslim council cancels meeting with Trudeau over Liberal stance on hate crimes, Gaza

crying muslim

OTTAWA – The National Council of Canadian Muslims has cancelled a scheduled meeting today with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, saying there’s no point in speaking with him.

Chief executive Stephen Brown says that’s because of Trudeau’s response to the situation in the Gaza Strip and his government’s failure to deliver legislation and funding to prevent hate crimes.

Brown says Trudeau has not followed through on promises he made to the Muslim community in the 2015 election that brought him to power.

I love how identity politics is biting him in the ass.

Canadian Hells Angels members implicated in U.S. case against Iran for assassination attempts on U.S. soil

U.S. prosecutors allege that the government of Iran recruited two Canadian men associated with the Hells Angels to assassinate Iranian defectors in Maryland as part of an international scheme meant to silence dissidents abroad.

A federal indictment unsealed on Monday says that Naji Sharifi Zindashti, an Iranian drug trafficker operating under the orders of Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security, recruited Damion Patrick John Ryan, 43, a Canadian full-patch member of the Hells Angels, to carry out a hit on two Iranians in Maryland in December of 2020. Mr. Ryan in turn hired Adam Richard Pearson, 29, a Canadian Hells Angels affiliate then living illegally in Minnesota, to carry out the plot, prosecutors say.

There’s no formal mechanism to make Trudeau face a leadership review — even if MPs wanted one

Last week, Liberal MP Ken McDonald walked back comments suggesting he would like to see the Liberal Party consider a leadership review of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

But even if a substantial number of Liberal MPs wanted such a review, there’s no formal way to make it happen — not while Trudeau is prime minister.

The Liberal Party doesn’t have a leadership review mechanism built into its constitution. It does allow for “leadership endorsement” ballots, which allow registered Liberals to vote on whether they still support the current leader.

Jump in illegal crossings causes speculation amongst residents of Canada-U.S. border states

Around the bar at Wayne’s Lanes, a bowling alley in the Vermont village of Canaan, the rumours of people clandestinely slipping across the nearby border from Canada come out in a trickle.

There was the couple spotted walking down a remote road last October, clad in floral shirts and shorts as if they had no idea what to expect from the chill of a New England autumn. The four figures, carrying backpacks, seen crossing a farm field. Others trekking through the forest or waiting by the side of the highway.

Why is Canada so vulnerable to foreign meddling?

Any strong words Trudeau may mouth about China are to be taken with a very large grain of salt.

The allegations kept mounting in Canada: Election-meddling by China, an Indian-backed assassination on home soil, and a campaign to harass Iranian dissidents. Is Canada especially vulnerable to foreign interference?

Michael Chong said it did not take long for him to become a target of Beijing.

In testimony before US lawmakers on Capitol Hill last year, the Canadian Conservative politician described how an alleged intimidation campaign against him was born after he spoke out against China’s human rights record in parliament.
