the lens through which I view all the China scare shit in Canada is that it's 100% just CSIS being jealous that they don't run the fuckin government as much as the CIA does down here, so they're stirring up shit to set up a power grab
there's this CSIS "foreign influence report" being circulated now about some members of government allegedly being assisted by or assisting foreign enemies (read China), and all CBC can report is who has read it and what they think. The Trudeau government to their credit seemed to recognize it as a naked made-up CSIS power grab and didn't immediately cave then name/expel everybody on the list, so now CSIS is trying to stir up shit that this means the Trudeau government is weak and unwilling to take decisive action to expel the communist infiltration. Trudeau for his part seems unwilling to just come out and accuse CSIS leadership of lying for political points.
