Should We Fund the ‘Nazis’ of the 21st Century?

They certainly cannot be happy in Beijing. An exceedingly technical administrative decision in Washington, D.C. will soon result in investors pulling tens of billions of dollars in investments from a cash-strapped China.

On November 14, the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board changed the benchmark for the Thrift Savings Plan’s International Stock Index Investment Fund, better known as the I Fund.

Previously, the I Fund tracked the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East Index. The Thrift Board decided on November 14th instead to track the MSCI All Country World ex USA ex China ex Hong Kong Investible Market Index.

CSIS warns of Chinese recruitment campaign targeting Canadian government employees

Canada’s spy agency is warning of a Chinese plot to recruit Canadian government officials and academics.

In an alert sent to federal employees earlier this month and seen by CBC News, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) warns of a large-scale email campaign trying to lure workers into an overseas talent program.

“The [People’s Republic of China] is likely using this recruitment campaign to acquire Canadian knowledge and expertise,” says the alert.

Freed China detainee Michael Kovrig breaks silence, says allegations linked to Michael Spavor are ‘baffling’ and ‘hurtful’

OTTAWA—Michael Kovrig, the former Canadian diplomat whose detention in China caused a global uproar, is breaking his silence to make it clear: he was not, and never has been, a spy.

In an exclusive series of interviews with the Star, Kovrig pushed back at a recent media report that alleges fellow detainee, Canadian Michael Spavor, is claiming he was duped by Kovrig into giving up information on North Korea, which Spavor claims is the reason he was arrested.

Fentanyl is changing the world of warfare

US wants China to stop exporting ingredients while Iran and Russia look to weaponise the drug

There is a suspicion in the United States that China has been mounting a revenge attack for the humiliating western-led 19th-century Opium Wars. How else to explain the fact that Beijing’s all-seeing state has allowed Chinese companies to export the ingredients for the high-powered synthetic drug fentanyl that is killing young Americans?

About 70,000 died of fentanyl overdose last year; it is regarded as 50 times as potent as heroin with the pills easily smuggled into the US via the Mexican cartels.

China decries Canada’s ‘hypocrisy’ after Spavor blames Kovrig for their detention

Beijing has defended its prosecution of two Canadians for espionage, after The Globe and Mail reported that Michael Spavor blames intelligence work done by Michael Kovrig for their nearly three-year-long detention.

Mr. Spavor is seeking a multimillion-dollar settlement from Ottawa, two sources told The Globe, alleging he was arrested in China in late 2018 because he unwittingly provided intelligence on North Korea to Mr. Kovrig, which was later shared with Canada and allied spy services.

The ‘Suicidal Mania’ of American CEOs

Dozens of businessmen paid homage to Xi Jinping last week.

They gave a standing ovation to the current leader of what may be the most murderous political organization in world history. Dozens of American business leaders, including Apple CEO Tim Cook, Blackstone’s Stephen Schwarzman, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Boeing CEO Stan Deal, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, Bridgewater’s Ray Dalio, FedEx CEO Raj Subramaniam, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, and Visa executive Ryan McInerney, were on hand in San Francisco to pay homage to Xi Jinping, president of China and general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), at a dinner in San Francisco hosted by the U.S.-China Business Council and the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations. Xi had earlier met with President Joe Biden, who later described their talks as “some of the most constructive and productive we’ve had.” At the dinner, Biden Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo told the American business leaders: “All of you here this evening remain keenly interested to do business in China, and to find ways to advance our bilateral economic relationship.” Raimondo said she knew this “because half of you have come to see me to tell me that.” We are witnessing part II of what the great James Burnham called “the suicidal mania of American business.”

Urgently Needed: An Economic and National Security ‘War Cabinet’

Voters in a small Michigan township ousted their entire township board over the board’s support for building a Michigan-taxpayer subsidized, Chinese battery manufacturing plant in their midst. History might not remember them as among the first Americans to take a stand against the creeping Chinese Communist Party (CCP) influence growing in the United States, but their vote should serve as a historic and valiant wake-up call for all Americans and their leaders.

How then should their leaders respond to the valid concerns over the threat posed by the CCP’s efforts in America?

Study Unveils Toronto Universities’ Risky Partnerships With China on AI, High-Tech Weaponry

A recent study reveals hundreds of publications from Toronto universities collaborating with Chinese academic institutions linked to the military on sensitive research. A former intelligence officer said the ongoing partnerships signal an incentive gap in curbing such practices.

The study, released in October by the Frontier Assessments Unit (FAU), identified a total of 371 publications from collaborations between Canadian universities and seven Chinese academies known as the “Seven Sons of National Defence” due to their strong affiliations with the People’s Liberation Army, the primary military force of communist China.

Freeland to Testify at Committee on Canada’s Funding to Beijing-Led Infrastructure Bank

A House of Commons committee is set to question Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland about Canada’s dealings with the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), which has been accused of being under the influence of Beijing. This comes five months after Ms. Freeland’s commitment to suspend collaboration with the bank.

MPs voted in favour of an Oct. 23 motion asking the House of Commons Special Committee on Canada-China Relations to invite the Minister of Finance to appear as a witness in its examination of “Canada’s freeze in government-led activity” with the AIIB, as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.

LISTEN: “Bill Morneau said it was about jobs, jobs, jobs. There were no jobs. Then whistleblower @BobPickard came out and said the bank was a ‘cesspool’ of Communist intrigue.” #cdnpoli https://t.co/iY6nQVw6gR

CCP’s Enhanced, Covert Interference in Canada: A Deeper Look

As China’s foreign interference in Canada draws increasing scrutiny, a new report details how the communist regime influences politicians and stifles persecuted groups. Notably, it highlights ongoing efforts to suppress support for Falun Gong adherents and their quest to end the persecution of their spiritual practice, which began in 1999.

The 130-page report, released by the Falun Dafa Association of Canada (FDAC) on Oct. 25, details Chinese Communist Party (CCP) strategies for foreign interference, focusing on adherents of Falun Dafa, also called Falun Gong, in Canada.

The Long Red Shadow Behind Islamic Terrorism

Decades of communist subversion by China underlie the terror currently witnessed in the Middle East.

Try searching for “Israel” on China’s biggest search engine Baidu—the nation’s name is no longer on the map, although the names of its major cities are still there.

The discovery, which caught many in China by surprise on Oct. 30, is the latest twist in a calculated silence by the regime in Beijing, in contrast to other major world powers that have rushed to Israel’s side.

Positioning itself as a mediator and advocate for peace, the regime has criticized Israel for going too far in its counterattack against Hamas.

Our Response to China Must Be Overwhelming, Not ‘Proportional’

On October 24, a Chinese J-11 fighter jet recklessly maneuvered within ten feet of a U.S. Air Force B-52 bomber flying in international airspace over the South China Sea, endangering the crew of the American plane. There have been provocative Chinese intercepts of U.S. planes and vessels in the global commons for decades, but now the pace of the belligerent actions has increased.

What was the response of the Biden administration?

O’Toole says Canada’s been a ‘frog in … boiling water’ on Chinese interference

OTTAWA — Former Conservative leader Erin O’Toole told MPs Thursday that Canada has been ignoring threats from China for far too long and the country must wake up to the new realities of Beijing’s interference in our democracy.

“As a country, we must realize that Canada has been like the frog in a pot of boiling water; multiple governments of both stripes have ignored our intelligence agencies, who have been warning about the heat in the water from China,” he told MPs at a House of Commons committee.
