#Censorship Spreads to Overseas: Sing Tao Daily Refuses to Publish Statement Condemning the National Security Law in Canada

A group of Hong Kong people in Canada has planned to publish a statement on Sing Tao Daily (Canada) condemning the Hong Kong national security law, but the statement was rejected by the newspaper. The statement was eventually published on Ming Pao Daily News (Canada), but only after removing parts that criticize local Chinese leaders. The Canadian Hong Kongers suspected that the effects of the national security law have already extended to Canada.

How CCP Infiltrate Media? Former Editor-in-Chief of a Canadian Newspaper Explains in a Hearing

The Commons Special Committee on Canada-China Relations at House of Commons of Canada hosted a hearing. Victor Ho, the former editor-in-chief of a Chinese-language newspaper Sing Tao Daily B.C. edition, said that the Chinese government is using the identity of oversea Chinese to “brainwashes” Chinese Canadians, citing numerous examples of CCP constantly infiltrating the Canadian Chinese-language media.

The Ottawa news website "Blacklock’s Reporter" quoted Victor Ho, now living in Vancouver, saying that the Chinese consul general Tong Xiaoling gave a speech on July 23 this year at CHMB-AM (in Vancouver). She criticised some Hongkong people for deliberately slandering and undermining the Hong Kong National Security Law. She even accused Canadian activists for "trying to intimidate people who truly care about Hong Kong."

Victor Ho also noted that Thomas Leung, a Canadian radio commentator, showed his support of violent suppression and cracking down on Hong Kong pro-democracy demonstrators in a CJVB-AM program last year. He urged the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to investigate such cases, safeguarding Chinese communities from being infiltrated by political directive and protecting the national interests of Canada.
