The Bureau Podcast

Canadian investigative journalist Sam Cooper unpacks the larger issues at play behind “Hurricane Trump’s” tariff threat, in particular U.S. concerns over high-level organized Asian crime and its access to Canada’s political class across the country’s elite institutions.

“Fentanyl,” says Cooper, has become a U.S. code word for China and the Communist regime’s proxy war with Western societies, not just as the controlling mind and financier behind the fentanyl crisis, but in its bid to disrupt and destabilize democratic strongholds in Xi Jinping’s bid for world domination.

Canada’s fall from grace as an intelligence partner to the United States creates an ever-growing problem as the prospect of a hot war between America and China becomes increasingly possible.

Cooper talks at length on the complex issue of Chinese political influence within Western societies, including the potential for exploitation of individuals with ancestral ties to China, and the resulting distrust and scrutiny faced by Asian immigrant populations.

Meanwhile, the severe erosion of trust between Canadian and American law enforcement agencies, which has led to a halt in intelligence sharing, represents a five-alarm fire for Canada. Why are we not comprehending the gravity of the breakdown?
