Names of Candidates Supported by Beijing an ‘Open Secret,’ Committee Told

The Chinese regime’s interference in Canadian elections revealed in recent media leaks is only the “tip of the iceberg,” and anti-Beijing activists say they have a good idea who its favoured candidates are, a Commons committee heard on March 10.

“If we want to say who are the 11 potential nominees that CSIS had kind of mentioned, I can pretty much guess who they are,” said Cheuk Kwan, co-chair of the Toronto Association for Democracy in China.

Kwan was referring to media reporting that the Chinese regime had funded at least 11 candidates in the 2019 election.

The fight between Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre is taking Canadian politics to a dark place

The fight between Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre was never going to be pretty, but this week both politicians fired off some words that could define not just their own fates, but the state of future Canadian political debate.

Poilievre, the Conservative leader, has gone where few, if any, opposition leaders have gone before, accusing the prime minister and his government of collaborating with a hostile foreign power — China, in this case.

Leaks to the media of Canadian Security Intelligence Service documents about China’s electoral interference, Poilievre contended, are evidence that the country’s top spies are worried about the loyalty of the leader of government.

From the paper that routinely labels conservatives as racists or racist adjacent etc etc

John Ivison: Liberals are fighting suspiciously hard to prevent Katie Telford testifying on Chinese interference

The motion introduced at the House of Commons’ ethics committee on Friday to call the prime minister’s chief of staff to testify on its investigation into foreign interference means there are now two parliamentary committees seeking an audience with Katie Telford, and, presumably, two committees that are about to be gridlocked by Liberal filibusters.

The Prime Minister could clear up the most important questions about China’s interference in our elections – simply by answering them

Wednesday was a gruesome day for the Prime Minister. It began with a report by Global News citing two high-level memos to the Prime Minister’s Office warning, in highly specific terms, not just about foreign interference in our elections generally, but about infiltration and funding of Liberal campaigns by the government of China.

The first, a “Special Report” prepared by the Intelligence Assessment Secretariat within the Privy Council Office – which reports directly to the Prime Minister – warned that Chinese officials had passed money via intermediaries to a clandestine network of 11 candidates in the 2019 election.

Giving the middle finger is a ‘God-given right’, Canadian judge rules

Giving your neighbour the middle finger may not be polite but is protected as part of a person’s right to freedom of expression under the Canadian constitution, a judge has ruled.

In a 26-page decision, Dennis Galiatsatos dismissed a case against a man accused of harassing his neighbour in a Montreal suburb.

Ontario legislature member is part of alleged Beijing 2019 election-interference network: sources

An election interference network directed by China’s Toronto consulate allegedly involved a sitting member of the Ontario legislature, according to sources with knowledge of the investigation into Beijing’s covert efforts during the 2019 federal election.

Those sources assert that Vincent Ke, a Progressive Conservative member in Premier Doug Ford’s government since 2018, served as a financial intermediary in Chinese Communist Party (CCP) interference schemes described in two separate Privy Council Office intelligence reports reviewed by Global News.

I am getting awfully tired of these cocksucking traitors.

China accuses Canada of smearing reputation over alleged secret police stations

China on Friday accused Canada of smearing its reputation over allegations China is secretly operating two overseas police stations in Quebec.

Canada should “stop sensationalizing and hyping the matter and stop attacks and smears on China,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said at a daily briefing.

“China has been … strictly abiding by international law and respecting all countries’ judicial sovereignty,” Mao said.

Hmmmm …

I think CSIS just used Twitter to dunk on the PMO https://t.co/7FfsbYcfyC

Brian Giesbrecht: Most Canadians Don’t Think Canada Is a ‘Post-National State’

When newly elected Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a bewildered Canada in 2015 that Canada was a “post-national state” not many of us knew what he was talking about.

Doesn’t “post-national” mean that Canada was once a nation, but no longer is one? Was he really saying that Canada was no longer a nation—that it had somehow graduated from nation status to some higher stage?

He didn’t explain, but perhaps what is happening now at Roxham Road can be at least partly explained by Trudeau’s unusual conception of what the country he is governing is all about.

How long do people live in Canada? COVID-19 shortened national life expectancy, new health dashboard finds

Despite life spans trending upward for most of the last century, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the largest annual drop in Canadian life expectancy on record, according to a new national health dashboard.

Canada’s chief public health officer Theresa Tam unveiled the new, interactive dashboard Wednesday, writing in a statement the site will be used as an “integral part” of her annual reporting on the health of Canadians.

My bet is covid measures not “covid” shortened the national lifespan.

Trudeau faces fury of Canadian MPs over alleged Chinese election meddling

Justin Trudeau is under mounting pressure to explain how seriously his government has responded to the threat of Chinese interference in Canadian elections in the wake of damning intelligence leaks.

Allegations that the prime minister’s government has failed to act on meddling efforts featured prominently in a raucous session of parliament on Wednesday, as concern over Beijing’s efforts to undermine Canadian elections continues to dominate the country’s politics.

Jesse Kline: Justin Trudeau rejects Canadian patriotism

At this point, it seems mighty clear that, despite the denials, cabinet was well aware that numerous intelligence reports had uncovered evidence of China interfering in successive Canadian elections well before the story was made public in November. It doesn’t really matter whether Prime Minister Justin Trudeau bothered to read the reports, as he is ultimately responsible for his government and, as far as anyone can tell, Ottawa did nothing to counter this direct threat to Canadian democracy.

Trudeau should be dipped in a barrel of excrement every morning.

RCMP are investigating Juniors ‘alleged Chinese police stations’ in Quebec … sure just like they’re investigating Junior’s Winnipeg Lab Espionage

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are investigating allegations of two so-called “police stations” in Quebec that are suspected to be operated by Chinese government officials.

The RCMP confirmed by email Thursday morning an open investigation by the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team in the province into the two alleged outposts: one in Montreal and another in Brossard, a suburb on the city’s south shore.
