1. Pulling together my recent🧵s on this latest #Cdnmedia China saga that has much broader implications re #CdnNatSec, political operatives, breaking the law to leak to journalists with political motives.
Remember who #RobertFife is.

Fife implied China had the ability to choose 🇨🇦’s government right down to whether majority or minority. Utterly reckless nonsense. Of course, Fife offered not one single shred of factual evidence. #Cdnpoli #CdnMediaFailed
3. The reporting on this story is off & there is so much that is suspect. Resurfacing allegations that are not new. Why? Why now? By whom?#POECreport #FluTruxKlan #ChristineAnderson #Cdnpoli #cdnmedia
I very much agree with this important point from Stephanie Carvin. Something is off here. Also, what’s behind resurfacing a nearly 3.5 year old allegation? This doesn’t pass the smell test for me. #cdnpoli #CdnNatSec #cdnmedia @csiscanada 
Dong defeated current #CPC comms director, Sarah Fisher, in the 2019 election in question. You may know Fischer from her vocal support of the #FluTruxKlan destabilization operation that cost 🇨🇦 billions & provided a-bombs of disinformation to the political right, including 🇷🇺&🇨🇳.
Another thing, as @dadinthe6 pointed out. This alleged “help” by PRC, came 8 months after 🇨🇳 vowed retaliation against 🇨🇦’s Liberal gov’t for the detention of Meng Wenzhou? cbc.ca/news/meng-wanz…
The Trump admin requested the detention of MZ, 🇨🇦’s then AG, JWR, complied #cdnpoli

Claiming China had the ability to chose 🇨🇦’s gov’t right down to whether minority or majority, it utter nonsense. How was this done, exactly? Someone @csiscanada showed #RobertFife “top secret”materials? Is that legal? How did Fife obtain clearance to view such material? #cdnpoli
We all witnessed a tsunami of disinformation & info ops AGAINST the Liberals in the last 2 elections. We saw attacks & manufactured “scandals”. I monitored multiple media sites & don’t recall disinformation about the #CPC in the almost entirely #Conservative owned #cdnmedia.
This recent skewed piece by #RobertFife has a political agenda. China absolutely interferes, as does Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Israel, UAE & of course, the networks of US billionaires (ie Koch Network). But to suggest 🇨🇳 was able to choose our gov’t is suspicious as hell….
Remember who #RobertFife is. He published false information leaked from anonymous sources demonstrating that Maher Arar was a terrorist (he wasn’t). Fife’s reporting was instrumental in not only the false smearing of Arar, but also Arar’s torture in Syria. thewalrus.ca/hear-no-evil-w…
But worse than that. It wasn’t only a glaring #CdnMediaFail. It was an attempt to smear the Chrétien/Martin gov’t, working on securing Canadian citizen, Arar’s, release from a Syrian prison. Top RCMP & CSIS officials were implicated in the leak. The smear of Arar was political.
So I can’t help but find the timing of Fife being the vessel for re-releasing an old report re 🇨🇳’s interference in 🇨🇦’s affairs (on many fronts, for years) to be more than a tad suspect. Especially given the failure on the part of intelligence agencies & policing re the Convoy.
