Bombshell “Canadian Eyes Only” intelligence reveals allegations never reported in Canadian media and singularly points to Justin Trudeau as clandestinely supported by Beijing.

Summary

A six-page intelligence document disseminated in Ottawa months before Canada’s 2019 federal election confirms Justin Trudeau and his Liberal candidates were favoured by Beijing in Canadian elections, reports investigative journalist Sam Cooper in his exclusive review for The Bureau.

The document titled “PRC Strategy and Tactics to Influence the Meng Proceedings” exposes serious information gaps in Ottawa’s Foreign Interference Commission hearings, writes Cooper, and reveals how the interlocked detentions of Meng Wanzhou, Huawei’s chief financial officer, and the Two Michaels, Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, drove Beijing’s deep interference in Canada’s 2019 and 2021 contests.

The CSIS report indicates Chinese agents moderated their support for Trudeau and Liberal candidates, with Beijing “hedging its bets” ahead of the 2019 vote in order to maximize influence on the Meng proceedings.

Shockingly, the document also points to a deadly last resort if the People’s Republic of China (PRC) failed in their campaign to halt Meng’s extradition process:

“CSIS assesses that the PRC prioritizes avoiding Ms. Meng’s extradition partly due to concern that she may cooperate with U.S. authorities during a criminal trial and reveal privileged information in the process,” the June 10, 2019 CSIS document says. “Uncorroborated single source CSIS reporting indicates that the PRC may consider Ms. Meng’s exfiltration or assassination if it becomes the only alternative to significant national harm.”

Charles Burton, a sinologist and former Canadian diplomat in China, rated the June 2019 assessment as a “highly significant document,” writes Cooper.

“I think it’s a game-changer in terms of the Interference Commission, because it indicates more than other documents we’ve seen in the past, the degree of sophisticated understanding that CSIS has over [China’s] Ministry of State Security operations in Canada,” Burton told Cooper.

“So it makes it much, much, more difficult for the government to claim CSIS isn’t properly informed on China’s activities,” he added. “And one does wonder why, when this information would have been transmitted to the policymakers and the Prime Minister’s office and the Prime Minister himself, why the government has not taken any action to address these very serious issues of infiltration by a foreign power into our Canadian politics.”
