Chinese Spy Ring Busted In Canada

McGill University

Epoch Times: Canadian Prof Accused of Stealing Technology for China Had Funding From Ottawa in Same Period: Report

A McGill University professor accused of involvement in a years-long scheme to steal U.S. technology for China’s military received hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal funding from Ottawa during the same period, a report by La Presse says.

Last year, the FBI arrested American citizens Yi-Chi Shih and Kiet Ahn Mai on charges of scheming to steal military technology from an American company to export to China.

WNU, that is -nothing- in comparison to what will happen in Silicon Valley and NYC, once the clean up starts. It's filled with Chinese spies working for the state and Chinese companies. Industrial theft in the billions/month. Trump should make this his next "pain point" for China -- if the sanctions don't get their attention, THIS - in combination with the Visa program the Chinese enjoy - WILL get their attention :)

Everyone knows that Chinese citizens will “have to” spy for the Chinese government. If you don’t your family still living in China is threatened. Enough of those stories out there to be believed.
