NDP Introduces Non-Binding Meaningless Motion To Have Johnston Step Aside As Special Rapporteur … blah blah bullshit

David Johnston – China Class Crony

The NDP is introducing an opposition day motion calling on David Johnston to step down as the government’s special rapporteur on foreign interference — only days after one of its MPs was told by CSIS she has been targeted by the Chinese government.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said that while he has been careful not to attack the former governor general or his reputation, Johnston’s background has led to doubts about his work as the special rapporteur.

… The motion — which would be nonbinding if passed — is being introduced after NDP MP Jenny Kwan said she was briefed Friday by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).

Gotta protect that China class.

Fifth Columnist Suing CSIS Over Alleged “Typecasting” Of Fifth Columnists

Deputy mayor suing CSIS over alleged ‘typecasting’ of Chinese immigrants

A former Ontario cabinet minister who has been the focus of intelligence leaks related to Chinese interference in Canada is suing CSIS, saying the spy agency publicly humiliated him because of a “stereotypical typecasting of immigrants born in China as being somehow untrustworthy.”

Sen. Woo Confirms He Drafted the Citizen Petition Against Foreign Agent Registry Presented in House in April

A citizen petition against a foreign agent registry that was sponsored by Liberal MP Chandra Arya in the House of Commons in April was drafted by Sen. Yuen Pau Woo, The Epoch Times has confirmed.

“At the request of organizers across the country, I helped to draft the petition,” Woo told The Epoch Times in an email.

The petition, initiated by Coquitlam, B.C., resident Li Wang, says “a foreign influence registry poses a serious harassment and stigmatization risk for racialized communities.”

Why is David Johnston the decider on foreign interference?

Ever since David Johnston delivered his 55-page report on election interference by Beijing, the fundamental question remains unchanged.

Why is an unelected friend of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, chosen by the PM and paid for by taxpayers, in charge of deciding whether there should be a public inquiry into foreign interference, an option Johnston has rejected?

Gurski: David Johnston owes Canada’s spies an apology

I spent more than 30 years with Canada’s two intelligence services, the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS). I worked in collection, cryptanalysis, translation, analysis and distribution over those years at various times. I know how intelligence is produced and how it is marketed, and a bit on how it can help decision-makers be better informed. In short, I know that intelligence has a purpose and makes a difference.

What would it take for Canada to have a ‘serious’ debate about foreign interference?

Appearing in Winnipeg a day after David Johnston released his first report on foreign interference, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stressed the word “serious.”

“I would simply ask Canadians, and indeed opposition leaders, to actually look at the substance of this very serious issue and take it with the seriousness it deserves,” he told reporters.

Trudeau’s appeal to seriousness is in keeping with his current line of attack against Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre — the Liberal argument being that these are serious times that require serious leadership and ideas, and Poilievre offers neither.

No need for a debate. Trudeau and the LPC are ChiCom Assets end of story.

Inquiry or not, foreign interference in Canada’s elections is part of a new Cold War that we cannot hide from

Western democracy is under attack from authoritarian states like China and Russia, and Canada must do more to defend our freedoms

Chinese election interference is a hot topic in Canada. Yet, while it is indeed a matter of enormous importance, its real significance can only be understood in the context of the new Cold War against the West.

This conflict is one in which China and Russia have long been engaged, while here at home our bien-pensant elites have continuously warned against us adopting a supposedly outdated “Cold War mentality.” The only ones who are out of date, however, are those whose understanding of recent history ends with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the beginning of the “end of history,” in which the values of liberal democracy and the West reign undisputed forever and ever.

Mélanie Joly’s office upset over Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis and preacher Charles McVety’s plan to host Israeli minister

OTTAWA — Events featuring an Israeli cabinet minister alongside controversial Canadian preacher Charles McVety and a Conservative MP are ruffling feathers in Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly’s office.

Joly’s office only learned about Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli’s planned trip to Canada from other Liberal MPs, who raised questions about it when they received an invite to an event with Chikli on Parliament Hill next week.

Sabrina Maddeaux: Canada Day virtue signalling shows how far we’ve fallen

The recent wave of cancellations embodies Canada’s derailment from the tracks of common-sense decision making and good governance

Another day, another Canada Day cancellation. In the last two weeks, three major cities scrapped celebrations of our country’s national day. First, Calgary, then Toronto and Vancouver.

Each municipality had its reasons and, in each case, those reasons embody Canada’s recent derailment from the tracks of common-sense decision making and good governance.

A lot of faces need exposure in Canada.

Former Conservative leader informed he is being targeted by Chinese government

Canada’s spy agency has informed former Conservative leader Erin O’Toole that he was targeted by Beijing during his time as party chief and remains a target because of his criticism of the Chinese Communist Party.

A source close to Mr. O’Toole said the Conservative MP was briefed Friday by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service and he is still considering how best to reveal details to the public in a manner that balances Canadians’ right to know with national-security concerns about classified information.

Stephen Harper thinks foreign interference is ‘far worse than we think’

China’s political interference in Canada is pervasive, and likely goes well beyond what has already come to light, former prime minister Stephen Harper is warning, calling for an end to what he calls “naive globalism.”

The Chinese government has sought to influence elections in Canada, channel money to curry political favour and seek vulnerabilities in politicians who have family living in China, according to secret intelligence documents reported by The Globe and Mail in recent months.

What else could be expected? Canada is a balkanized state of 5th Columns thanks to Multiculturalism which makes loyalty a one way street.

Thinking the ‘unthinkable’: How China could change Canada’s conversation about nuclear subs

Almost a decade ago, a military conflict between the United States and its allies on one side and China on the other was described by major foreign policy and defence observers as the “unthinkable war.”

Lately, it’s become clear that those same experts are now thinking through the unthinkable.

After the recent G7 summit in Hiroshima, Japan, Beijing summoned Japan’s ambassador to China to complain about what it called the “anti-China” tone of the summit. Later, the Chinese government publicly berated Great Britain.


Not going to happen under a Liberal government. Their goal is to destroy Canada’s armed forces.

Allies now consider Canada’s Liberal government a security risk so I am not sure the US or Britain would be willing to risk their technology in Canada’s hands.

Conrad Black: David Johnston succeeds at massaging Trudeau’s message

Following the preliminary report by David Johnston, the special rapporteur on the controversy over foreign interference in Canadian elections, it is clear that the federal government’s response has been an infelicitous combination of amateurism and flimflam. As I wrote in this space on April 22, Johnston’s title of “special rapporteur” is a pretentious and misleading misnomer, the position is redundant and the prime minister’s motives in creating it and filling it as he has are suspect. And if such a role had to be confected, David Johnson is not the right person for it. Don Martin, the genial, perceptive and venerable CTV News contributor, may have gone slightly overboard when he said that Johnston’s “reputation is but a smouldering ruin.” But he is probably right that “the final chapter of (Johnston’s) report will be ripe for immediate shredding upon publication in many minds outside the inner Liberal circle … Johnston should step aside from this thankless task immediately.”

Maxime Bernier mocks Trudeau’s ‘gender equality’ minister over ‘Pansexual Visibility Day’ tweet

Maxime Bernier, the leader of the People’s Party of Canada (PPC), has again blasted gender ideology, this time ripping a Canadian federal minister for tweeting in support of “Pansexual Visibility Day.”

“Canada’s minister for women, gender equality and youth. She won’t protect the youth against the trans mutilation industry, or women against unfair competition by men in sports, or perverts in their spaces,” tweeted Bernier Wednesday.
