Knowing what the Hong Kong vetting officer said, I am worried for those who casted an "objection'" vote or "abstention" vote on the enactment of the National Security Law in Hong Kong during the National People’s Congress.

Opposing the National Security Law, and opposing Hong Kong on discharging its constitutional duty to safeguard national security, means the person objectively cannot have the intention to uphold the Basic Law.

Canadian voters are likely to face foreign cyber interference in the next election, say cyber spies

Canadian voters are likely to face some form of foreign cyber interference ahead and during the next federal election, warns Canada's cyber spy agency, including false information about voter fraud.

However, that meddling is unlikely to match the scale and influence as seen in the U.S., says the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) in a new threat assessment report published Friday.

"We assess that an increasing number of threat actors have the cyber tools, the organizational capacity, and a sufficiently advanced understanding of Canada's political landscape to direct cyber activity against future Canadian federal elections, should they have the strategic intent," reads the report.
