Interesting revelations from the Trudeau regime:
The censored five-page memo is marked “top secret.” Aides told Mr. Trudeau not to talk about China negatively despite the document specifically mentioning the country 28 times.
“This is a very sensitive issue and public efforts to raise awareness should remain general and not single out specific countries to avoid potential bilateral incidents,” the memo said.
It added that CCP agents attempted to “influence the outcomes of Canadian elections,” “pressure or influence Canadian officials,” and “influence the publication of Canadian media content which portrays the Chinese government negatively.”

Cabinet had to follow “due process” before firing suspected Chinese spies working at the National Microbiology Laboratory, says Health Minister Mark Holland. Scientists with links to the People’s Liberation Army came under surveillance in August 2018 but remained on the job until July 2019: “Do you think they were eminent scientists or eminent spies?”

Two confidential CSIS witnesses have testified that CSIS director David Vigneault took the rare step of changing a sensitive intelligence report on MP Han Dong for the second time in 2023, following a meeting between Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Vigneault regarding media leaks about CSIS investigations into suspected Chinese interference in Dong’s 2019 nomination in Toronto.
Following a day of bombshell testimony regarding this and other meetings between Trudeau and Vigneault, Tuesday evening Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue ruled that Vigneault will be recalled Friday for re-examination on his private discussions with the Prime Minister and Trudeau’s top aides.

WHOA !!!! No wonder the Liberal gov withheld these CSIS docs until 1 am this morning.
“We know that the PRC clandestinely and deceptively interfered in both the 2019 and 2021 general elections.”
“At least 18 candidates and 13 staff members were implicated in PRC foreign interference networks.”

You thought that was hyperbole?
Canada’s Foreign Interference Commission heard Wednesday that Conservative MP Michael Chong, who was threatened by Chinese intelligence operators in Toronto, fears foreign agents could infiltrate closed party leadership races and effectively appoint Canadian prime ministers and premiers.
Chong’s testimony reflected concerns from CSIS intelligence documents exclusively reported by The Bureau, which found Chinese proxy agents have allegedly infiltrated leadership contests for provincial and national parties recently. […]
The inquiry also heard for the first time that Chinese agents or proxies could have targeted Chong with threats back in 2019.
But when Chong raised the concern of a “spoofed” email to Liberal Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland, she neglected to respond.

A mind-blowing read at Sam Cooper’s The Bureau: How I accessed Top Secret intelligence on PRC election interference in Canada
This foggy September morning I was going to see with my own eyes whether disturbing information I was hearing about Chinese efforts to influence Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and fix Canada’s recent federal elections could be substantiated by government documentation.
Confidential Source 3, a senior Canadian intelligence officer with broad access to high-level information from CSIS and the Privy Council Office arrived on their cycle and pulled a clear plastic bag from a waste pouch.
Inside I could see a wad of documents and BIC mini-lighter.
Confidential Source 3 explained they could face serious legal consequences for showing classified records to me.

A military veteran who spent 20 years in uniform, Lieutenant Colonel Huajie Xu now lives on a quiet street in Winnipeg.
But he did not serve in Canada’s armed forces.
Instead, he was a member of China’s People’s Liberation Army, according to records obtained by Global News.
Before arriving in Canada in 2021, Xu worked at the military academy of the Chinese cyber warfare department that hacks Canadians and steals their secrets.
Chinese state-sponsored cyber attacks have targeted Canadian companies, activists and government agencies.
[…]
Hundreds of pages of records filed in court indicate that Xu joined the PLA in 1998 and became a member of the Chinese Communist Party in 2001.
He earned a degree in Infantry Command from Jinan Army College, and a Masters in Military Education Training from the PLAIEU.
Between 2011 and 2013, Xu was trained by the Russian military in Moscow. Upon returning to China, he became an instructor at the PLAIEU until retiring in 2018.
In 2021, he applied to immigrate to Canada. Despite acknowledging his military career in his application form, he was accepted as a permanent resident.
Immigration, Citizenship and Refugees Canada declined to answer when asked by Global News why it had approved Xu as an immigrant.
Terry Glavin: This guy got permanent resident status before he even set foot in Canada.
Y2Kyoto: Xi See What You Did There
More Chinese Communism can Save Us from Climate Change
Anyone who is curious why China is building wind and solar AND coal, the answer is they are building wind turbines because Xi Jinping told them to build wind turbines.
In 2021, Xi wanted to pimp China’s emissions record in time for the next COP conference, so he issued strict district level energy quotas, demanded more wind turbines and solar, and ordered a transition to renewables.
The order for quotas was obeyed, but Xi forgot to tell everyone to reduce their energy use, to ensure the quotas lasted until the end of the year. As a result, China burned through their quotas and ran out of energy by July 2021, and much of the Chinese economy shut down for a few weeks while people waited for new orders from the Communist Central Committee.
The central committee did the only thing possible, but it took time for news of the crisis to filter through the communist bureaucracy and for a decision to be made – they relaxed the coal quotas.

Two scientists at Canada’s high-security infectious disease laboratory – Xiangguo Qiu and her husband, Keding Cheng – provided confidential scientific information to China and were fired after a probe concluded she posed “a realistic and credible threat to Canada’s economic security” and it was discovered they engaged in clandestine meetings with Chinese officials, documents tabled in the House of Commons reveal.
Dr. Qiu, who worked at the National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg, was dishonest when confronted with her actions, making “blanket denials” and “half-truths, and personally benefited from the arrangement,” the documents state, noting that she repeatedly lied to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service and “refused to admit to any involvement in various PRC [People’s Republic of China] programs.”
The two infectious-disease scientists were escorted out of the National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg in July, 2019, and later had their security clearances revoked. They were fired in January, 2021. Their whereabouts are not known.
Xiangguo Qiu an Keding Cheng’s connections to China are outlined in detail in a CSIS security assessment from Jan. 8, 2021, marked secret.Governor General’s Innovation Awards; Excerpt from CSIS report
CSIS, in a Jan. 8, 2021, report marked secret, said its findings call “into question Ms. Qiu’s loyalty to Canada and her reliability as it relates to loyalty.”
[…]
Dr. Qiu and her husband had an undisclosed bank account in China’s Commercial Bank, the documents reveal, and she had conducted research connected to the People’s Liberation Army. CSIS said it found an unfinalized work agreement for a talent program with Hebei Medical University that stipulated she would be provided with funding worth the equivalent of $1.2-million Canadian between 2018 and 2022.
The agency said it found an application from her to the program that said she would work for China’s Wuhan Virology Institute for at least two months every year.
As part of her enrolment, CSIS said, Dr. Qiu committed to “building the People’s Republic of China’s biosecurity platform for new and potent infectious disease research.”
The CSIS investigation found Dr. Qiu led a project at Wuhan Virology Institute that would assess cross-species infection and pathogenic risks of filoviruses – work that the service said suggests “gain-of-function studies were possibly to take place.”

Canada’s Foreign Interference Commission faces intensifying credibility concerns as a Hong Kong immigrant group becomes the second diaspora group to boycott Ottawa’s examination into Chinese interference, based on concerns that several politicians “suspected of ties to Chinese Consulates” were awarded legal standing by Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue.
In addition to publishing a statement to the Commission citing “concerns over its objectivity and security integrity,” Hong Kong Canadian boycott spokesperson Ivy Li personally questioned Commissioner Hogue’s own professional links to former Liberal prime ministers Pierre Trudeau and Jean Chretien.
In late January, the Uyghur Rights Advocacy Project (URAP) pulled out of the inquiry, accusing Commissioner Hogue of enabling “a significant security risk” to the diaspora in Canada and their families in China.
URAP spokesman Mehmet Tohti said his group could not participate because two Toronto-area Liberal politicians — MP Han Dong and former Ontario Liberal MPP and current Markham Deputy Mayor Michael Chan — were given full standing, meaning their lawyers will be able to question other participants in the commission.
Chinada
The corruption revelations are getting worse:
In September 2020, as Ontario’s real estate rocketed higher, a Toronto realtor with ties to Beijing claimed a fake Chinese income of $763,689 in order to secure HSBC mortgages for two properties, bringing her personal portfolio in Greater Toronto up to five homes.
What makes this realtor’s case politically explosive is not just that her network allegedly laundered money from China into Toronto real estate, nor the forged Chinese employment records they used to obtain massive mortgages from Canadian banks, or that they became Ontario landlords by leveraging criminal underground banks servicing Chinese diasporas in Vancouver and Toronto.

Chinada
Canadian Senator met with leaders affiliated to PRC espionage arm days before filing challenge to Foreign Interference Commission:
Three days before submitting to the Foreign Interference Commission that federal reports on election interference and WeChat disinformation are “problematic” — Canadian Senator Yuen Pau Woo met in Vancouver with community leaders involved with Beijing’s “Overseas Chinese” espionage arm, giving a speech suggesting that a foreign agent registry will lead to anti-Asian exclusion.
The February 3, 2024 meeting at Vancouver’s Chinese Canadian Museum was arranged by Senators Woo and Victor Oh and also attended by Ottawa Liberal MP Chandra Arya, according to event accounts posted to WeChat, a social media platform linked in Canadian government reports to China’s disinformation attacks against Conservative MPs in the 2021 federal election.

The system is working as intended.
Chinese migrants living across Toronto were obtaining mortgages from HSBC while supposedly earning extravagant salaries from remote-work jobs in China. In one example, an Ontario casino worker that owned three homes also claimed to earn $345,000 in 2020 analyzing data remotely for a Beijing company.
Before joining HSBC Canada, the whistleblower had studied fake-income mortgage frauds for his Business Masters degree at Vancouver Island University. After arriving at Aurora in February 2022, while digging into the branch’s loan books and interrogating his colleagues, he made mind-blowing assessments.
Since 2015, the whistleblower concluded, more than 10 Toronto-area HSBC branches had issued at least $500-million in home loans to diaspora buyers claiming exaggerated incomes or non-existent jobs in China.
These foreign-income scams spiked during the pandemic, the whistleblower believed, because borrowers could somewhat plausibly claim to be working remotely in other countries while riding out Covid-19 in Canada.
While a small bank of Aurora’s size was expected to issue about $23-million in residential loans every year, this branch had shovelled out $88-million in mortgages in 2020, according to the whistleblower, and over $50-million in 2021. […]
The Bureau’s seven-month investigation into D.M.’s allegations suggests HSBC Canada and other Canadian banks could have issued many billions of dollars in questionable mortgages to Chinese diaspora buyers, and a significant cause of Canada’s real estate bubble is hundreds of billions in illicit fund transfers from China into Canada, and bank lending that amplifies its impacts, especially in Toronto and Vancouver home prices.
“There are thousands of these cases, large scale,” D.M. said in an interview. “Hardworking Canadians are denied mortgages and these Chinese residents forge documents and get mortgages approved, heating up the already hot Ontario real estate markets.”

Closing the Stable Door after the Dragon is Already Inside
The federal government will stop funding grant applications if the researchers working on them are affiliated with a foreign military, state security entities or certain foreign state actors, citing a need to protect Canadian national security.
Ottawa made the announcement Tuesday evening, and following a report from The Globe and Mail last month that since 2005, 50 Canadian universities have had extensive research collaborations with China’s military. The projects with China’s National University of Defence Technology included areas like quantum cryptography, photonics and space science, the newspaper reported.
Now, Innovation Minister François-Philippe Champagne says protecting Canadian research is a matter of national security and cited “recent events” when asked about the decision.
