Via CBCWatcher: This Reddit user discovered the anomalous contributions to the Liberal Papineau Riding Association at the time… and was derided as a racist
Back in 2017, I analyzed public Elections Canada donation records from the 2015 election and detected an unusual volume of large cross-country donations flowing from individuals with Chinese surnames residing in BC into the riding associations of Justin Trudeau (Papineau), Jason Kenney (Calgary Milnapore) and Andrew Leslie (Orléans). These donations are separate from the “cash-for-access” fundraisers that Trudeau organized with CCP-linked billionaires while campaigning for the 2015 election.
I posted about these findings on Reddit, calling for an investigation, and was widely derided as a racist. I also sent in tips to CBC, the Globe and Mail, and CTV. None of these media organizations investigated or reported on the issue.
A few days later, and for about two weeks, whenever I left the house I was obviously trailed by individuals of Chinese appearance (in an area with almost no Asian population). Various individuals would sit in their cars across the street watching our house and waiting for me to leave. This only stopped when I reported the issue to the FBI. […]
The out-of-province donations to Trudeau’s riding association by individuals with Chinese surnames residing in BC dwarfed the donations that he received directly as a candidate. And because these donations were made to his riding association rather than himself or his party, were never reported in the media. Few think to examine riding association donations rather than donations directly to candidates or parties, because the concept of funneling riding association donations to directly support candidates was new to the 2015 election. I’m also not sure if it is legal.
