CTV News: Canada summons Chinese ambassador over alleged threats to MP Michael Chong
OTTAWA - The Liberal government is summoning China's ambassador over allegations by Canada's spy agency that a Chinese diplomat in Toronto was involved in a plot to intimidate a Conservative MP and his family.
Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said Thursday she asked her deputy minister to tell Chinese Ambassador Cong Peiwu that Canada will not tolerate any form of foreign interference in its affairs.
Joly confirmed media reports that the Canadian Security Intelligence Service believes a diplomat working out of China's Toronto consulate had targeted Conservative MP Michael Chong and his relatives in Hong Kong, due to his criticism of Beijing's human-rights record.

Canada is weak. The West is weak.
The East is ascendant. 50% of global GDP by 2040.
America is a road apple for Comrade Xi.
"WNU Editor: This is probably just the tip of the iceberg."
I agree. Fturdue!
Chong is a CBC not Chinese.
The Chinese was threatening his brother Cheech.

I would dearly love to see Canada find some backbone re: China.
"The East is ascendant."
The East is a descendant of Western tech. Once that has played out, the East has nothing to offer. You think China is going to guarantee freedom of the seas trade? LOLOLOLOLOLOL They are the ones killing it
