Do you really need to ask? Seriously? It needs to be taken seriously by everyone, especially our politicians.
WE really need to get rid of this guy

Our politicians are not serious people . You can tell by how they treat us as simpletons .
Well, judging by how we keep letting them get away with it, they are not wrong.
Tasha Kheiriddin: Trudeau shrugs as evidence of Chinese electoral interference mounts — National Post
Unless Trudeau takes immediate and decisive action to stop this interference, he will undermine the very democracy he purports to serve
According to CSIS documents obtained by the Globe and Mail, Chinese Communist Party (CCP) operatives orchestrated cash donations to political campaigns, had business owners hire “volunteers” for specific election campaigns and boasted that it’s “easy to influence Chinese immigrants to agree with the PRC’s stance.”
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau downplayed the CSIS reports and said the leaked documents are a sign that the organization needs to review its internal security measures.
To say this is pathetic is an understatement. Unless Trudeau takes immediate and decisive action to stop this interference, he will not only fail to rebuild his tattered credibility on national security, he will undermine the very democracy he purports to serve.
Yet this is being held up, at least in part, because Trudeau does not want to be labelled a racist. Public Safety Minister Marco Mendocino has already mused that a foreign agents registry might stigmatize communities who have felt targeted by security agencies in the past.
What must be made clear is that these measures do not target Chinese-Canadians. They target the foreign government that wants to abuse them. Standing up to the CCP in 2023 is no different than calling out the U.S.S.R. in 1983. It’s not about race, it’s about rights: the right to vote the way one chooses, without manipulation — or fear.
So, give him some good bud first? Makes sense. Should calm down some of those "cruel and unusual" complaints.

Somebody with more time on their hands on the weekdays can fish into that. My time until the weekend is pretty limited. A good place to start would be about 480 (section 19) here:
I'm waiting for either side to cite a section from that document, and make an argument that it was violated. Until that happens, this is just political bullshit.Somebody with more time on their hands on the weekdays can fish into that. My time until the weekend is pretty limited. A good place to start would be about page 480 (section 19) here:
Again, my time on the weekdays is very limited. Mornings on the weekend before other people are awake… I have more time to play. If somebody wants to step up to the plate at the above link, a good place to start would be right about here:
Now it’s been reported that the 11 candidates who received illegal, if secret, donations in 2019 broke down as nine Liberals and two Conservatives seen as friendly to Beijing…& these donations came through a cut out from the Chinese Government…would that be illegal?
Anyone else want to step up to the plate here? I have to roll out the door to work within the next 15 minutes for the next decade or so.
Nobody? I’m on the tail end of my lunch break here.
When your party stands accused of benefitting from foreign election interference, blocking a Commons committee from hearing from witness or seeing documents, it isn’t a good look.
Yet, that’s what the Trudeau Liberals were doing on Tuesday as MPs looked for answers on new reports of Chinese election interference.
Top secret CSIS documents viewed by the Globe and Mail and reported on last week detailed China’s attempt to interfere in the 2021 campaign to ensure a Liberal victory.
MPs wanted to expand their existing study on China’s election interference to include the 2021 campaign and Conservative MP Michael Cooper tabled a motion calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s chief of staff, Katie Telford, to appear and for all relevant documents from the PMO to be provided to the committee.
That was too much for Liberal MP Jennifer O’Connell, who accused the Conservatives of reckless and Trump-like tactics?
“While the Conservatives want to look at these documents, I’m sure that People’s Republic of China would also love to get their hands on the secret top secret CSIS documents,” O’Connell said?
So, wait, there are documents that have relevant information and the Liberals don’t want to let elected Canadian officials see them because they are worried China might find out what we know about their election meddling?

I will try and circle back to this time permitting on one of the mornings on the weekend. Figured I had a good start for somebody who felt ambitious and had some time on their hands.

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claims there are “many inaccuracies” in the leaked documents from Canada’s national intelligence agency in recent days about China’s attempts to influence the 2021 federal election, but didn’t specify what exactly was inaccurate.
The Prime Minister’s office was not able to clarify which information that has appeared in media reports in recent days was inaccurate, citing privacy considerations.
The secret and top-secret documents revealed, among other things, how Chinese diplomats were working to re-elect the Liberals in 2021, but only for a minority government, and worked to defeat Conservative candidates that they thought were unfriendly to Beijing.
When the SNC-Lavalin affair first broke in the pages of the Globe and Mail in 2019, he claimed the allegations that his office had pressured former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould to offer a deferred prosecution agreement to the Montreal construction company were “false.”
“Neither the current nor the previous attorney general was ever directed by me nor anyone in my office to take a decision in this matter,” he said at the time.
Trudeau also denied claims from Global News last year that he had been briefed by Canadian intelligence officials about allegations of federal election candidates having received funds from Beijing in the 2019 election.
A parliamentary committee is currently looking into the allegations of Chinese interference in the 2019 election, and has expanded its study to include the 2021 election as well.
