    They were Chinese! This is a six hundred page report that outlines that we just don’t know the level of nefariousness the Chinese are capable of. Also, no, we don’t have any evidence of actual violations or transgressions. They didn’t cause or create an actual threat to our national, but they could’ve!

    Absolutely ridiculous paranoiac stuff that will only fuel surging sinophobia in the Canadian public.

    I remembered posting where the actual evidence is in r/canada regarding all the secret police station garbage and all they do is just “hurr durr CCP and C****s taking Vancouver over blah blah blah” while my comment is in the negatives expectedly.

      Not entirely because that presumes the editorial board and ownership of the media don’t have agency and are simply pandering to the “natural” right wing tendencies of the masses for simple profit motive when, in reality, they’re actively and consciously reinforcing right wing narratives because media reifies these narratives through their institutional legitimacy.
