One quarter of Americans believe the Chinese coronavirus pandemic has already ended, but one-third believe it will “never” end, a survey from The Economist/YouGov found.
The survey asked respondents, “In your opinion, when do you think the COVID-19 pandemic will finally end?”
LONGUEUIL, QUE. – A former employee of Quebec’s power utility charged with spying on behalf of China has been freed on bail while he awaits trial.
Yuesheng Wang, 35, is the first person to be charged with economic espionage under Canada’s Security of Information Act, and he also faces three charges under the Criminal Code for fraudulent use of a computer, fraudulently obtaining a trade secret and breach of trust.
Justin feels better now.
Chinese bots are swamping Twitter with sexually explicit posts about porn and escorts in an apparent bid to stop the spread of news about the massive protests against lockdowns and President Xi Jinping.
Searches for major Chinese cities that have seen mass protests will “mostly see ads for escorts/porn/gambling, drowning out legitimate search results,” said Air-Moving Device, sharing a series of charts.
An RCMP spokesperson told The Epoch Times that the 35-year-old resident of Candiac, Quebec, a researcher, is the first person in Canada to be charged with economic espionage under the Security of Information Act.
But Housakos expressed concern about the attendance of a representative of a group called the Canada-China Friendship Promotion Association (CCFPA) at the Nov. 15 hearing, and her claim that the proceedings are likely to cause discrimination against the Chinese community in Canada, as reported by CBC News.
“We have to fight that. It is discrimination,” said Tina Zhu. “We are human beings, we are the same.”

This rot started at the top with Trudeau eagerly licking Xi’s arse.
Trudeau government unveils long-awaited plan to confront an ‘increasingly disruptive’ China
Canada’s long-awaited Indo-Pacific Strategy describes China as “an increasingly disruptive global power” on the world stage — a social and economic force that’s too big to ignore but is also increasingly focused on bending international rules to suit its own interests.
Using some surprisingly blunt language, the strategy says the Canadian government needs to be “clear-eyed” about China’s objectives in the Far East and elsewhere. It promises to spend almost half a billion dollars over five years on improving military and intelligence cooperation with allies in the region.
“China’s rise, enabled by the same international rules and norms that it now increasingly disregards, has had an enormous impact on the Indo-Pacific, and it has ambitions to become the leading power in the region,” says the 26-page document, which was provided to the media in advance of its formal release in Vancouver on Sunday.
Junior refuses to divulge which Candidates received ChiCom funding last election, my guess is the majority were LPC 5th Columnists.
This is all just smoke and mirrors, it’ll be business as usual for Canada’s China class.

Protests against China’s stringent Covid restrictions have intensified, as a wave of civil disobedience triggered by a deadly fire in the far west reached levels in the mainland not seen since Xi Jinping assumed power a decade ago.
At Beijing’s elite Tsinghua University, students shouted “freedom will prevail” and called for an end to lockdowns, while crowds also returned to Middle Urumqi Road in Shanghai for a second day, and pushed down pandemic barricades in Wuhan.

Following the publication of worrisome information regarding a Chinese secret campaign to interfere with the 2019 federal elections, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has chosen to stonewall and make this a partisan issue. Considering the importance of what was first reported by Global News, Canadians have the right to honest and thorough answers.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is banning the sale of communications equipment made by Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE and restricting the use of some China-made video surveillance systems, citing an “unacceptable risk” to national security.
The five-member Federal Communications Commission said Friday it has voted unanimously to adopt new rules that will block the importation or sale of certain technology products that pose security risks to U.S. critical infrastructure. It’s the latest in a years-long escalation of U.S. restrictions of Chinese technology that began with President Donald Trump and has continued under President Joe Biden’s administration.
Guess Hunter lost a deal.
Videos shared on social media in China have appeared to show fresh protests against Covid restrictions, after an apartment block fire killed 10 people.
People in Urumqi are seen confronting officials, breaking down a barrier and shouting “end the Covid lockdown”.
Infections have hit new highs in China in spite of a tough zero-Covid policy.
Authorities in Urumqi have now promised to phase out restrictions – though deny that these stopped people escaping Thursday’s fire.

VATICAN CITY, Nov 26 (Reuters) – The Vatican on Saturday accused Chinese authorities of violating a bilateral pact on the appointment of bishops by installing one in a diocese not recognised by the Holy See.
A statement said the Vatican learned with “surprise and regret” that the bishop of another district had been installed as auxiliary, or assistant, bishop in Jiangxi.
The unauthorized installation appeared to be one of the most serious violations of a 2018 agreement between the Vatican and Beijing on the appointment of bishops.
The accord, which some Catholics have denounced as a sell-out to China’s Communist authorities, was last renewed for a two-year period in October. Its details are still secret.
The U.K. is restricting Chinese-made surveillance equipment from sensitive sites including government buildings, based on a government review of security risks.
“The review has concluded that, in light of the threat to the U.K. and the increasing capability and connectivity of these systems, additional controls are required,” said Cabinet office minister Oliver Dowden in a statement to Parliament.
The cameras are “produced by companies subject to the National Intelligence Law of the People’s Republic of China,” Dowden added.
On the face of it, the fledgling organization’s goals seem innocuous enough — to encourage Chinese-Canadians to run for elected office and vote in elections.
The Chinese Council for Western Ontario Elections says it wants to be an “incubator” for candidates who support the community’s interests and educate newcomers about Canadian democracy.
We are here because Junior eagerly licked Xi Jinping’s arse on behalf of Canada’s China class.
The illusion of Chinese support was one of the many miscalculations that led Putin down the road to war
Since the beginning of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, China has played a decisive — though publicly low-profile — role in strategic decision-making in both Washington and Moscow. As I report for the first time in my new book Overreach, it was a back-channel intervention approved by Beijing that caused the US to scupper a deal for the Poles to provide Soviet-made MiG-29 jets to the Ukrainian Air Force back in March. And since September a flurry of personal diplomacy by Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi with NATO and the US has led to a rare moment of public agreement over Russia, when Xi Jinping said that the world “needs to prevent a nuclear crisis on the Eurasian continent” in a meeting with Joe Biden at the G20 summit in Bali.
To clear up ongoing confusion coming from statements by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Chief Electoral Officer Stephane Perrault and some media reporting, the federal government itself says China attempted to interfere in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections.
A former employee of Quebec’s electricity utility who is charged with economic espionage for the benefit of China told his bail hearing Thursday he wants to stay in Canada to clear his name.
It is Day 2 of Yuesheng Wang’s bail hearing at the courthouse in Longueuil, Que., south of Montreal.
