“China – Communist Slave State”

Late in August of 1971, the Iowa Highway Patrol arrested two people for speeding and carrying a concealed weapon. The two were activists for The Black Revolutionary Party, a militant group formed earlier that year at a meeting of Canadian supporters of Chinese Communism, which was dedicated to armed resistance against discrimination and to the spread of Mao Zedong’s ideology.

In the car, the Iowa officers discovered an envelope addressed to Ottawa, to Bu Chaomin, a correspondent for China’s Xinhua News Agency. He was also, according to declassified FBI files, “reported to be a Red Chinese intelligence agent” – and later identified as one of the Chinese spies who spirited away Canadian nuclear technology, a record of covert work that forms part of an increasingly distant history.

Can we plow under the Bethune memorial now?

I have no sympathy for the predicament the Liberal party now finds itself in. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and all his hangers-on are the authors of their own misfortunes. When it comes to the stories of Chinese electoral interference now dominating the headlines, this government is the victim of its own short-sightedness and arrogance, and there’s nothing more to it.

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.

For Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to wait for his friend David Johnston to advise him, up to two months from now on whether to call a public inquiry into allegations of interference by China in our federal elections, is a disservice to Canadians.

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.

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.

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.

The resignation of MP Han Dong from the Liberal caucus has put more pressure on the Liberals to call a public inquiry on election interference. We asked Prime Minister Justin Trudeau whether he was made aware of interference during the most recent election. #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/Z469H7LwdX
