Trudeau government decided CSIS transcript of MP Han ‘Scarecrow’ Dong provided no ‘actionable evidence’

Scarecrow?

The Trudeau government determined that there was no “actionable evidence” after it received a CSIS transcript of an early 2021 conversation between Liberal MP Han Dong and China’s top diplomat in Toronto, according to a senior government source – saying conclusions could not be drawn that Mr. Dong asked Beijing to keep two Canadians in prison for political reasons.

But when the allegations against Mr. Dong surfaced in a Global News report on Wednesday, the MP left the Liberal caucus to sit as an Independent.

… A national-security source told The Globe in February that Mr. Dong at the time of the conversation with the consul-general was also under surveillance by CSIS because China’s Toronto consulate considered him one of Beijing’s strongest allies and lines of access into Parliament. CSIS’s code name for Mr. Dong is “Scarecrow,” according to the source.

Adam Zivo: Here’s why the outrageous Han Dong scandal is plausible

The intelligence leaks alleging MP Han Dong advised China to delay the release of Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor are outrageous – but also entirely plausible. These leaks, which suggest that Dong’s motivation was to undermine the Conservatives to the benefit of Beijing, underline the need for a full and transparent public inquiry into China’s influence campaigns.

He was guilty the second he turned on the waterworks. Tears are the gold standard of Liberal party insincerity.

Beijing denies meddling after MP Han Dong’s resignation from Liberal caucus

OTTAWA — Beijing says it has nothing to say about ongoing allegations that China has meddled in Canadian affairs, including those regarding a member of Parliament who resigned from the Liberal caucus.

Han Dong announced Wednesday night that he will now sit as an Independent while a rapporteur investigates claims of Chinese interference, including allegations the Toronto MP willingly received electoral support through Chinese officials.

Christian Leuprecht: Beijing is the one stoking racism against Chinese-Canadians

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its supporters have long been strategic about using allegations of racism as a shield to prevent the Canadian government from fighting foreign interference. Canadian elites who parrot Beijing’s lines are falling squarely into its trap.


Junior’s guilt is evident, he is unwilling to provide a simple response to a simple question. Canadians are not allowed to know what Justin knows.

Chinese Diplomat Endorsed Montreal Councillor Who Heads Organizations Under RCMP Probe: Report

A senior diplomat from the Chinese consulate in Montreal reportedly urged attendees of an event in September 2017 to support a Brossard municipal candidate who is the director of two organizations now under RCMP investigation for being alleged Chinese police stations.

On Sept. 8, 2017, the Chinese consulate in Montreal held an event at the Service à la Famille Chinoise du Grand Montréal (SFCGM) to announce the release of a handbook meant to assist Chinese visitors to Canada. The event was moderated by Xixi Li, director of SFCGM and another Chinese community centre in Brossard, the South Shore Sino-Quebec Centre (CSQRS), according to an article first published by Sept Days, a Chinese-language weekly in Montreal.

In a normal country rather than Trudeau’s 3rd World shithole version of Canada there would have been expulsions by now.

Terry Glavin: David Johnston the right man to whitewash Chinese interference

He has spent a half century supporting Beijing’s strategy to draw Canada into its orbit of influence

There are so many crazy things the Trudeau government has been expecting Canadians to believe about the partisan advantage the Liberals have accrued to themselves owing to their cozy relationships with China’s agents of influence in this country that it’s really difficult to decide which is the most objectively unbelievable and easily disprovable.

Trudeau’s Liberal MP Han Dong secretly advised Communist Chinese Diplomat to keep the Two Michaels imprisoned in 2021: sources

Justin Trudeau and Han Job Dong

Liberal MP Han Dong, who is at the centre of Chinese influence allegations, privately advised a senior Chinese diplomat in February 2021 that Beijing should hold off freeing Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, according to two separate national security sources.

Both sources said Dong allegedly suggested to Han Tao, China’s consul general in Toronto, that if Beijing released the Two Michaels, whom China accused of espionage, the Opposition Conservatives would benefit.

The Liberal government must resign, they are evil.

Pierre Poilievre says Trudeau has lost ‘confidence’ of intelligence community over Chinese election scandal

OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) –– Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) leader Pierre Poilievre said directly that Canada’s intelligence community is in an “open revolt” against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in light of ongoing revelations by a whistleblower from the intelligence community that the Communist Chinese regime is meddling in Canada’s elections.

“First of all, it is clear that Justin Trudeau has lost the confidence of our intelligence community. And there is an open revolt against the prime minister,” noted Poilievre while speaking to media last week.

Licia Corbella: Trudeau offended by foreign money only when it opposes him

Informed Canadians will have little trouble remembering how fixated Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was with the foreign money donated through crowdfunding sources to the Freedom Convoy.

But for those who don’t recall, here’s a brief refresher. The PM was so obsessed about donations from Americans helping to fund the truckers’ protest on Parliament Hill last winter that he actually brought it up with U.S. President Joe Biden last February. It remains unclear what he expected the president to do. Freeze his citizen’s bank accounts, perhaps?

Trudeau retreats, and retreat is his best political strategy

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau retreated on Tuesday so that his chief of staff, Katie Telford, will now testify before a parliamentary committee. But it turns out retreat is a good plan for his Liberals.

Despite the chatter, Mr. Trudeau was never going to trigger an election simply to stop Ms. Telford from testifying. That would be a nutty political calculation.

Frustrated Doug Ford says CSIS didn’t give a ‘proper’ briefing about allegations against PC MPP

Canada’s spy agency gave Doug Ford’s chief of staff a briefing on MPP Vincent Ke over allegations of foreign election interference, but the premier says CSIS was “very secretive” and provided little detail.

Ford told reporters Tuesday that the meeting last fall with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service — which he did not attend but was later briefed on — was short on information about Ke, who left the Progressive Conservative caucus following unproven accusations of ties to Beijing.

GUNTER: Trudeau risking Johnston’s reputation

I have (or had) tremendous respect for former Governor General David Johnston. But no one — absolutely no one — who has been affiliated with the Trudeau Foundation should have been asked to conduct an investigation into whether it is necessary to have an investigation on Chinese interference in our elections.
