    On which, that the Chinese effort wasn’t as effective on the general American populace as the Russian campaign, or the Chinese police stations? For the latter it’s related to the Safeguard report release in 2016 of which multiple governments confirmed the grand diaspora government program had created hundreds of non embassy 'service stations" that just happened to be related to credible reports of tracking and intimidation. Of which a dude was just convicted in the US for, when they went after him, him and his partner started burning shit like they were a Russian embassy.

    Or the ineffective but present propoganda efforts by the prc that resulted in multiple news agencies being required to register as foreign agents in 2018 and an increase in IRA style social media campaigns around the covid pandemic.

        Always take it with a grain of salt! Don’t gotta trust us American pig dogs too much, you got French, English, German, Dutch. Man you name it they got it on the creepy NGO Chinese police “service stations”.

        None of this is to say the Americans don’t do the same shit and worse, the American government mad at foreign interference by Chinese and Russians is like the fucking Spiderman meme.

                The mounties right, dudley do right? Where’s the RCMP report this Canadian senator is talking about. Just because the Canadian investigation didn’t rise to criminality, but what did the Canadian investigation say, do the RCMP stand by doing the investigation in the first place?

                A commentary by one senator as the only positive thing you can say is pretty weak.
