Journalist Defends Reporting on Election Interference

A journalist whose reporting helped raise concerns about possible Chinese meddling in Canadian democracy told a committee of MPs on June 20 that he stands by his work.

Sam Cooper, who recently left Global News to start his own online news site, told MPs that other countries, such as Australia and the United Kingdom, have faced similar disclosures about Chinese attempts to influence elections, and have followed up with laws designed to counter foreign interference.

But in Canada, said Cooper, that has not happened.

5th Columnists: Canadian politicians linking abandoned Chinese exclusion law to a foreign agent registry

It’s without question one of the darkest episodes in Canada’s modern history.

For 24 years starting in 1923, the Canada Immigration Act barred almost any Chinese person from migrating to this country, an ugly extension of the earlier “White Canada” policy and a response to widespread fear of what some called the “yellow peril.”

Justin Trudeau will be remembered for his ‘leadership’ — not ‘the trash and the rumours,’ says sketchy Ex-Pm who took cash in envelopes from sketchy German

Justin Trudeau will be remembered for his ‘leadership’ — not ‘the trash and the rumours,’ Brian Mulroney says

OTTAWA — It wasn’t the flattering words, but the bitter context, that made Brian Mulroney’s introduction of Justin Trudeau on Monday night an extraordinary political moment.

Far from Parliament Hill, in Nova Scotia the former Progressive Conservative prime minister hailed Trudeau for his “leadership” of Canada through repeated crises, saying that’s what history will remember, not “trivia and the trash and the rumours that make the rounds” in Ottawa.


Mulroney: nothing wrong accepting envelopes of $1,000 bills

OTTAWA – Former prime minister Brian Mulroney cited the brazen public nature of his cash transactions with Karlheinz Schreiber as evidence today that there was nothing untoward in their business arrangement.

Mulroney told a public inquiry that he accepted an envelope stuffed with 75 one-thousand-dollar bills from Schreiber at a hotel at Montreal’s Mirabel Airport and then climbed into a car with his RCMP escort with the envelope in full view.

Grifters or what?

Canada Needs to Convene a “9/11 Commission” on China’s Election Interference

It is in America’s interest to find out the salacious details of foreign interference in democratic elections, especially when it occurs in our northern neighbor.

Unless its wildfires cause the skies in New York City to turn the color of a sci-fi dystopia, Americans tend not to think much about Canada. But you know who has not forgotten about our neighbor to the north? China’s ruler, Xi Jinping.

As part of China’s unfriendly competition with the West, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) chairman appears to have overseen a far-reaching and complicated effort to advance Beijing’s interests through direct interference in Canada’s 2019 and 2021 federal elections.

Trudeau’s Carpetbagging Bro Dominic Barton & McKinsey pitched Purdue Pharma Canada on plan to get rich on Opioid addiction in 2014, memo reveals

McKinsey pitched Purdue Pharma Canada on plan to boost opioid sales in 2014, memo reveals

Global consulting giant McKinsey & Co., under the leadership of Dominic Barton, pitched Purdue Pharma (Canada) in 2014 on how it could more aggressively market and boost sales of OxyContin and other highly addictive opioids to Canadians, according to a confidential memo obtained by The Globe and Mail.

McKinsey & Co. is facing a class-action lawsuit from the B.C. government, which Ottawa plans to join, that accuses the firm of engaging in reckless marketing campaigns to boost opioid sales, placing the Liberal government at odds with a company it has relied on for more than $100-million in contract work since 2015.

Barton is the same sociopath behind Trudeau’s mass immigration scam, he was a founding member of Century 100 and is also a China Class 5th columinist.

GOLDSTEIN: Ex-spy chief warned of China’s interference in 2010 — he was almost fired

Thirteen years ago, the then newly-appointed director of the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service warned Canadians about the growing threat of interference by China.

It almost ended Richard Fadden’s career. It’s also why he would be an excellent choice to head a public inquiry into foreign interference today.

Canada’s population will hit 40 million Friday … But there’s no labour shortage and asylum seekers are sleeping on the street in Toronto

Despite setbacks during COVID-19, Canada’s population is now growing at a “record-setting pace” and will soon pass the 40 million mark, reads a new update from Statistics Canada.

According to StatCan’s real-time population clock, Canada’s numbers will hit the 40 million mark just before 3 p.m. EST Friday, the organization said.


Given the housing shortage and the strain all services are suffering Trudeau’s mass immigration scam is a cruel and heartless act inflicted on Canadians.

It’s a sleazy plan concocted by Junior’s fellow China class crony Dominic Barton & others that will solely benefit the Corporate Class.

There is no labour shortage and asylum seekers are sleeping on the street. 

Contrary to Junior’s Star this is nothing to celebrate as mass immigration is a criminal fraud in progress..

Only the People’s Party is speaking out about this travesty.

Blackie’s Star: Majority Of Poorly Informed People Surveyed Support Trudeau’s Burgeoning VW & Stellantis Folly

Three-quarters of Canadians are in favour of hefty government subsidies to Stellantis and Volkswagen, a new poll suggests.

… Only 21 per cent of respondents said they were “familiar” with the issue, while 39 per cent had not “heard about it before today” and 40 per cent had “heard about it” but were unfamiliar with the specifics.

… Using online panels based on the Lucid exchange platform, Abacus surveyed 2,000 people between June 6 and 11.

Talk about polishing a Turdeau.

As We Dither Over a Public Inquiry, Beijing Continues Its Subterfuge in Canada

Canada is not that big a deal on the world stage.

Don’t get me wrong, I am a proud, loyal Canadian and love my country. It is just that we don’t really matter that much on the global scene. Our economy is the 10th largest in the world, which isn’t bad but could be better. When it comes to population we rank 39th. Defence? We come in at 20th out of NATO’s 31 members. Meh.

Terry Glavin: Justin Trudeau benefits the most from years-long public inquiry

So, David Johnston, the former governor-general, longtime Trudeau family friend and lifelong champion of deep political, institutional and economic collaboration between Canada and China has finally conceded what everybody already knew, which is that he cannot be trusted to shed any useful light on clandestine efforts to keep that catastrophic collaboration on life support.

To get a handle on what happens next in the Trudeau government’s ongoing, puck-ragging refusal to come clean about what it knew, when it knew and what it did about Beijing’s well-documented interference on the Liberals’ behalf in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections, it is necessary to remember why we’re at this clown-show juncture in the first place, exactly, and how we got here.

Justin Trudeau to consider public inquiry into foreign elections interference

OTTAWA—In a major shift, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will now weigh whether to call a public inquiry into foreign elections interference after former governor general David Johnston stunned the government Friday, resigning as outside adviser after weeks of controversy over his appointment and the conclusions of his interim report.

Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic LeBlanc, in a statement issued within an hour of Johnston’s resignation, said the prime minister has “tasked me with consulting experts and opposition parties on next steps and to assess who is best to lead that work.”

I bet John McCallum gets the nod.

Special Crony David Johnston Quits

David Johnston resigning as special rapporteur on foreign interference

David Johnston — tasked by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau back in March with looking into allegations that China tried to meddle in the past two federal elections — says he has decided to step down from that role.

In a resignation letter sent to Trudeau, Johnston said his role has become too muddled in political controversy for him to continue.

“When I undertook the task of independent special rapporteur on foreign interference, my objective was to help build trust in our democratic institutions,” the former governor general wrote.

It’s difficult to read his resignation without smirking. Try as he might to come off as a noble man wrongly smeared as a Trudeau hack and ChiCom useful idiot it just doesn’t pass the smell test. Well it does if you like the aroma of rancid Egg Rolls I guess.

Johnston was hired for one reason only; To run cover for the China Class of which both he and Trudeau are members.

These puppets willingly danced to Beijing’s tune.

Even a cursory glance into their backgrounds turns up the stench of their grift.

Canadians more likely to support foreign interference inquiry than hearings: Nanos

Canadians are twice as likely to support a formal inquiry into foreign interference, as opposed to public hearings, according to new polling from Nanos Research for CTV News.

Nearly six in 10 Canadians say they prefer the idea of a formal public inquiry headed by a judge with full subpoena powers, according to the survey.

Meanwhile, a quarter of respondents say they would prefer the public hearings option “to shine more light on the problem of foreign interference and the threat it poses.”

Terry Glavin: Here’s the report on Chinese interference that Johnston should have written

It’s quite the bombshell. It’s a 77-page investigative report on Beijing’s influence operations in Canada’s democratic institutions. It examines the Chinese Communist Party’s sinister engagements with this country’s political processes, universities, civil society, corporate sector, Chinese-language news media and social media.

Rich in documentary evidence and fact-based analysis, the report also relies on expert advice and named informants, except in cases where the security of individuals and entities would be put at risk. It’s titled Murky Waters: Beijing’s Influence in Canadian Democratic and Electoral Processes.

David Johnston says China interference whitewash may have been based on incomplete intelligence

David Johnston says China interference findings may have been based on incomplete intelligence

Former governor-general David Johnston conceded Tuesday that his findings that China did not orchestrate a campaign against the Conservative Party may have been based on incomplete intelligence, casting doubt on the special rapporteur’s report that a public inquiry into Beijing interference in Canadian democracy is not warranted.

In testimony before the Commons committee on procedure and House affairs, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh pressed Mr. Johnston to explain a contradiction between his report and what former Conservative leader Erin O’Toole told Parliament last week.

After all, how much intelligence is needed for a whitewash?
