If the federal government can push to remove one foreign state broadcaster, it can do so for others, argues the Conservative foreign affairs critic.
At the Special Committee on Canada-China relations in Ottawa Monday evening, Michael Chong grilled Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino on why state-owned Chinese broadcasters are still available in Canada, despite being removed in other countries over concerns about disinformation and human-rights abuses.
“Authoritarian state-controlled broadcasters, which spread propaganda and disinformation, should not be on the list of non-Canadian programming services and stations authorized for distribution,” Chong told the Star afterward. “That is our call for action.”
Remember when the CBC attacked the anti-ChiCom newspaper “Epoch Times” for not adhering to Strongman Xi’s party line on the Wuhan Flu?
The CBC were Xi’s finger puppet basing their whole story on a couple of cranks & Canada Post’s union, thankfully the public furor forced CBC’s cadres to back down.
Here’s the original CBC attack on Epoch Times, Beijing was well pleased that day.
