A federal blacklist of Freedom Convoy sympathizers was emailed to foreign banks with offices from Wall Street to Beijing, records show. The RCMP placed no restrictions on distribution of the blacklist: “Information was shared.”

Globe and Mail- China’s Vancouver consulate interfered in 2022 municipal election, according to CSIS
A Jan. 10, 2022, Canadian Security and Intelligence Service report viewed by The Globe and Mail outlines how China’s then-consul-general, Tong Xiaoling, discussed mentoring – or as the report quoted her, “grooming” – Chinese-Canadian municipal politicians for higher office to advance Beijing’s interests.

When the word came that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was going to make an announcement about foreign interference in Canadian elections, speculation mounted about what new thing this would be.
The answer was that there wasn’t much new, except for an unnamed new person, in the unfamiliar new role of “special rapporteur,” who would be empowered to recommend what should be done next. Including whether there should be an inquiry.
Make no mistake, this was a scrambling stall tactic, a way to hold off the critics baying for a public inquiry into Beijing’s interference in Canada’s elections. Those critics include the NDP, Mr. Trudeau’s partners in a parliamentary alliance that keeps his minority government in power.
And you know it’s a scramble when the Prime Minister strides into a news conference belatedly to tell us that in the coming days he will appoint an independent, eminent Canadian whom he can’t identify right now but, don’t worry, there are lots of folks like that in Canada.
The rest of the stuff Mr. Trudeau announced, such as reviews by bodies known as NSICOP and NSIRA, were already in the realm of business-as-usual, and already rejected by opposition parliamentarians as not transparent enough.
NSICOP, for example, is a committee of parliamentarians but not a parliamentary committee – it is a body that reports to the executive, sworn to secrecy and under the security rules set by the government.
We were told that Public Safety Minister Minister Marco Mendicino is tasked with launching consultations on creating a foreign-agent registry, which is a good thing and, as it turns out, something the government had already announced in December.
In fact, the first 10 minutes of Mr. Trudeau’s news conference was an exercise in running over old news about what the government has done in the past about foreign interference, or national security, or oversight of national security, before getting to the appointment to come of an unnamed person.
But let’s not miss the thing that has happened here: Mr. Trudeau made a half turn.

“Then, Mr. Kong Qingcun and others accompanied Mr. Dong Hanpeng to pay a visit to Mr. Taleeb Noormohamed, a local federal member of Congress. They focused on the construction of the British Columbia Chinese Museum and the docking with the Chinese Heritage and Future Foundation (CCHFF), hoping that CCHFF can be more widely solidarity and support.

To expose foreign interference is to empower foreign interference.
At PROC, Liberal MP Greg Fergus asked the head of CSIS…
“Is it possible in your opinion that unverified, or unconfirmed leaks from secret sources, that may or may not come from officials sources, could in itself represent a form of foreign interference?” #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/KW12Auw2gk

The next time you cheat on your taxes, do it in Mandarin: No charges will be forthcoming in one of B.C. largest-ever money laundering probes
“Regrettably, the challenge of proving a viable predicate offence, given the wording of the current legislation, combined with the complexity of an enormous data set in a foreign language, have conspired to make the prospects for conviction poor, despite the best efforts of many dedicated officers,” he said in a statement released Wednesday.
According to Considine, the investigation produced 41,877 documents. Police also seized almost 90 smart phones and intercepted more than two million communications, the majority of which were in Mandarin.
And besides, it could get awkward.

“In Part Two, among other things, I’ll present an illuminating but only a representative sample of the players because, as I’ve said, a full rogues’ gallery would make this newsletter the size of one of those old telephone books. They’re not all Liberals by the way. The New Democrats have their share, and the Conservative Party. . . let’s just say for now that the Conservative Party has a very serious problem that needs attending to. Very serious.”

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.

The Chinese donors who funded the Trudeau Foundation also wanted a statue of chairman Mao Zedong – the Chinese leader who brought his country under Communist control – erected in Montreal.

New reveals from Sam Cooper of Global News. (thread updated)
3. According to my sources, CSIS started tracking Han Dong, a former Ontario MPP, in summer 2019. They said CSIS believed that Dong emerged suddenly and suspiciously as a successor to MP Geng Tan as the Liberal candidate for Don Valley North.
4. CSIS investigators would later allege that Chinese Canadian seniors and students were bussed into the riding, and students were told they had to vote for a certain candidate to keep their student visas, sources informed Global News. They said Han Dong was the candidate.
5. National security officials also allege that Han Dong, now a sitting MP re-elected in 2021, is 1 of at least 11 Toronto-area riding candidates supported by Beijing in 2019. These officials said CSIS also believes Dong is a witting affiliate in China’s election interference. […]
9. On our broadcast tonight I explained how CSIS believes former Ontario Liberal Trade Minister Michael Chan promoted Han Dong to take the riding nomination, and Michael Chan is a top target in ongoing CSIS investigations, according to sources with knowledge.
Boom.

I’ve been covering Beijing’s influence-peddling rackets in the highest levels of Canadian political, corporate and academic circles for well over a decade now, and I haven’t seen anything quite like this. There’s no way of sugar-coating it.
In recent weeks, Trudeau and Mendicino have gone to such creepy lengths to downplay, dismiss and even cover up the extent of Beijing’s election monkeywrenching that it’s become impossible to paper over a deep rupture that has opened up in the relationship between the Prime Minister’s Office and the senior ranks of the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service.
That rupture will only get deeper now that Trudeau’s response to the revelations about the Chinese Communist Party’s 2021 election-jimmying operation is: CSIS needs to shut the hell up. The Globe’s access to the contents of those CSIS reports is “certainly a sign that security within CSIS needs to be reviewed,” Trudeau said last Friday. “And I’m expecting CSIS to take the issue very seriously.”
This isn’t how a government goes about its professed devotion to “transparency and accountability.” Count on it: the breakdown in the CSIS-PMO relationship is severe enough that intelligence officials are already familiarizing themselves with the “public interest” exemptions in the Security of Information Act – the 1985 successor to the Official Secrets Act. […]
It’s fairly routine for CSIS case officers to complain that the intelligence they procure goes up the line and nothing much seems to come of it. But what’s happening right now is not even close to routine. This is a much bigger deal than the calumny former CSIS director Richard Fadden had to endure back in 2010 after he disclosed that provincial cabinet ministers in B.C. and Ontario had come under Beijing’s sway.
Given the many smoking-gun details in the CSIS files made available to the Globe and Mail, it’s perhaps understandable that the Trudeau cabinet’s efforts to hush everything up has garnered less attention. The collapse in the CSIS-PMO relationship has gone mostly unnoticed. So let’s notice something here, shall we?
