One primary source confirmed a new detail reported by The Globe and Mail: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was entangled in an RCMP surveillance operation that targeted Paul Jin and the Sam Gor networks in Richmond, British Columbia. The Globe reported that early in his tenure, Trudeau met with Jin at a closed-door gathering at the Executive Inn Express Richmond, near Vancouver International Airport. Three sources corroborated the meeting according to The Globe, which took place between late 2015 and early 2017.

The collapse of E-Pirate and related Canadian law enforcement failures prompted then-B.C. Attorney General David Eby to launch a review, but it led to no legal reforms or policy changes in the province.

Stupidity, or capture, or both. The fact that Eby has had the same sketchy meetings with senior crime connected United Front leaders as Trudeau, (publicly and privately) gives me lots of questions. Also BC Belt and Road plan can be tracked directly to senior PLA. What’s going on

Chris Meyer, a former U.S. official who, like me, has spent the past decade studying China’s global influence operations, has some interesting advice for Canadians and our elected MPs (and Liberal-leader elect Mark Carney.)
In our conversation, the concept of cognitive dissonance emerges—two competing ideas, each containing some truth, yet their contradictions breed confusion and chaos. On one side is Trump’s sledgehammer rhetoric, coupled with his tactical, transactional approach to ‘deal-making’—a style that risks inflicting lasting damage on one of the most vital modern democratic alliances: the Canada-U.S. relationship. Beyond that, it threatens to undermine the post-World War II Anglo intelligence alliance.

It’s the ‘network’ that matters. This is one politician.

Significant: A Police Association of Paul Chiang’s former colleagues has rebuked PM Mark Carney for a ‘clear lack of integrity’ in using Chiang’s police background to express confidence in him. From my private sessions with Canadian police, discussing how to give diaspora members more confidence their complaints will be taken seriously— I know Canadian police take this case more seriously than most can comprehend. It works against the trust they are trying to build. Stay tuned.

This story isn’t done, because it’s not about one candidate’s comments. An alert on broader media vectors of transnational repression was given by the SITE panel of 5 that wasn’t really expressed adequately by the officials, or to Mandarin readers. Stay tuned.

@DrCaseyBabb is getting this on the terror culture side I think, as are others. It is in a way all part of the same big problem. Bad laws, bad leadership, bad politics.

So the way to get there is a big bump in the road, but we have to get it done, and time is short, and it requires electing a government that acknowledges our PRC problem and our legal problems that welcome TOC and hostile state actors and terror networks into our systems.

Aside from tariffs, which are a blunt tool that will hurt too many Canadians, what needs to be understood is high information officials in Canada and U.S. know Canada has a deep longstanding problem with PRC that needs to get turned around so we can become the best partners again
