Ottawa says it won’t allow Chinese EVs to be used for spying on Canadians

The federal government will take steps to ensure that imported Chinese electrical vehicles cannot be used to spy on Canadians, a parliamentary committee heard Thursday.

Testifying before the procedures and House affairs committee, Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree said Ottawa will put safeguards in place to make sure that Chinese EVs do not have “the capability to transmit information” back home.

He was responding to questions from Bloc Québécois MP Christine Normandin, who raised concerns that Chinese EVs could become “little spies on the road that could record our calls and take pictures of where we are going.”

Canada is uniquely unprepared for the dire national-security crisis we are now in

It is doubtful any country has ever been in quite the national security dilemma Canada now finds itself in: with so much land and so few people to defend it; wedged between two expansionist superpowers, one of which was until very recently our best defence against the other, but which has since become more or less aligned with it.

The dilemma is particularly acute in light of our charmed history. A country that had always considered itself invulnerable to attack – because of the oceans that surround us, because of the forbidding climate in our North, because of the Americans – wakes up to discover that it has suddenly become peculiarly vulnerable.

Coyne alert!

He fled B.C. in 2015. Now he’s been connected to 2 suspected biolabs in the United States

When Jesse Jia-Bei Zhu left British Columbia in 2015, the 62-year-old had a six-month jail sentence and a multimillion-dollar B.C. Supreme Court judgment hanging over his head — fallout from his thwarted plans for global domination of the lucrative bull semen industry.

Nearly a decade later, the wily entrepreneur’s name has resurfaced in the U.S. in connection to equally bizarre — if unsettling — allegations involving a pair of biolabs in California and Nevada stocked with vials of potentially hazardous substances.

U.S. Dealers In Full Panic Mode After Canada Green-Lights Chinese Cars

If you feel like Chinese cars are suddenly right around the corner, you’re not alone. The notion has received a groundswell of both direct and indirect support lately, and as affordable new cars drop like flies from U.S. lineups, American consumers are becoming more open-minded about the prospect of allowing Chinese OEMs to enter the market.

Given the political climate, it’s no wonder that dealers feel caught a bit off-guard by this development. And now they’re getting vocal about it.

A New Era in Canada–China Relations, or an Arctic Bargain?

OTTAWA — Canada has only one thing that Chinese President Xi desperately needs that he hasn’t been able to get elsewhere: a path to Arctic nation status. China has only one thing Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney desperately needs that he can’t get elsewhere: a trade pact large enough to make credible his vow to pivot away from Canada’s dependence on the United States.

In Carney’s world, Canada is more powerful than Trump thinks

U.S. President Donald Trump has reacted harshly to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s acclaimed speech at Davos. First Mr. Trump claimed Canada was a small-power satellite dependent on the U.S. Then Mr. Trump threatened 100-per-cent tariffs if Canada made a deal with China.

Till this day, we are still feeling the aftershock of the speech. Some observers have criticized Mr. Carney for provoking Mr. Trump. McGill University’s Andrew Potter called Mr. Carney “reckless.”


I bet the author of this love letter caught the clap from Carney.

Joel Kotkin: Carney is turning Canada into China’s vassal state

 

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s speech at the recent Davos conference — where he called for decoupling from the U.S. while entering a “strategic partnership” with China — was greeted rapturously abroad. His tough on Trump rhetoric is certainly winning political points at home as well.

Yet, in listing towards China, Carney is not only ignoring geography, but embracing an authoritarian regime far more dangerous than anything coming from MAGA. China’s clear intention is to seek global hegemony based on trade with an array of vassal states. All are then expected to follow Beijing’s party line.

U.S. interest in Alberta separatism raises red flags over what might come next

Communications between the Trump administration and Alberta’s separatist movement raised alarm at the highest levels in Canada last week. It also raised questions about Washington’s possible intentions.

Some even see dangerous parallels between American efforts to inflame Alberta separatism and the Russian campaign to gin up a separatist movement in eastern Ukraine a decade ago.

Last week, an Alberta separatist group revealed that it was hosted at three meetings by the U.S. State Department.


Honestly as the true nature of the Carney ChiCom alliance is revealed annexation looks better and better.

John Ivison: Carney’s diversification plan will turn to disaster if China attacks Taiwan

In his speech at his party’s convention in Calgary on Friday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre expressed his wariness about the “strategic partnership” the Carney government has struck with China.

Cognizant that many western Conservatives welcomed Beijing’s tariff relief on canola provided by an agreement to allow 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles into Canada, he did not expand on his misgivings.

The deal is deliberately limited in scope and certainly does not justify the wilder ramblings of some MAGA types like President Donald Trump’s former adviser, Steve Bannon, who mused about Canada and China conducting joint military exercises in the Arctic.

Carney doesn’t care about no Taiwan.

China’s Year of the Horse is Already Coming Up Lame

The Chinese New Year celebration observed later this month is the “Year of the Horse,” but you probably will not want to put any money down on either win, place or show.

Perhaps not since Soviet dictator Josef Stalin had at least eight of his top generals tortured and executed on the eve of World War II have we seen another nation dismantle their top military brass in the manner just pursued by Chinese President Xi Jinping.

ABC the Only Nightly Newscast to Cover Clandestine Vegas Biolab

It is not often that we get to point out that the most egregiously biased and Trump-deranged of the Elitist Media nightly network newscasts did something right. But, alas, ABC World News Tonight did the right thing for once.

Disturbing news broke of a clandestine biolab in Las Vegas, operating out of a home owned by a Chinese national. Here is the report in its entirety as aired on ABC World News Tonight on Monday, February 2nd, 2026…

Risks of working with China outweigh the benefits, Michael Kovrig warns

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Prime Minister Mark Carney’s trade deal with China has ruffled feathers, especially in Washington, and left many wondering whether the risk of exploitation and retaliation is worth the reward of increased trade.

National Post decided it would be a good time to share insights from China expert Michael Kovrig, a former Canadian diplomat who was wrongfully detained for nearly three years in China in retaliation for the arrest of Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver. Kovrig has long stressed that China uses economic and political coercion in its dealings with partners.

As Military Powers Jostle for the Arctic, How Far Behind Is Canada?

The Arctic’s growing importance has reached the point that acquiring Greenland has become a key demand for the second Trump administration amid concerns about Russian and Chinese ambitions in the region, drawing protestations from other allies who urge continued Danish sovereignty over the autonomous territory.

When it comes to Canada’s defence of the Arctic, its capabilities for the roughly 4-million-square-kilometre expanse of Arctic territory falls far short when compared to both adversarial countries and its ally the United States. However, some analysts warn that Canada may be falling behind even middle-power Arctic nations, if the sheer size of its Arctic territory is taken into account.

Chinese Canadian Group Petitions for Support of Carney’s China Policy While Pushing National Nanjing Memorial Day

OTTAWA — A petition supporting Prime Minister Mark Carney’s re-engagement with China is circulating in Canada’s Chinese diaspora, launched by an organization that has already submitted a policy proposal to the Prime Minister’s Office on establishing a national Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day.

The Chinese Canadian Proposals Committee, registered in Canada on August 31, 2025—several months after Carney’s spring election—proposed in October 2025 that Parliament establish a Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day “as part of a discussion on public history education,” according to a report posted on Weixin, a Chinese social media platform.
