This is something we need to be aware of, and stop if we can.

    China is doing this sort of thing, and worse, they’re just less obvious about it.

    For instance, China operates unauthorized police stations inside other countries, which they use to enforce party loyalty and target dissidents.

    You should also read the article about Chinese government interference in Canada:

    The Canadian government has been tracking Chinese government efforts to influence Canada since at least 1986.

    In 2016, newspaper sources reported that Justin Trudeau had been attending cash-for-access events at the homes of wealthy Chinese Canadians in Toronto and Vancouver, generating a political scandal. Attendees at these events, including those with connections to the CCP, would pay up to $1,525 per ticket to meet Trudeau.

    The People’s Republic of China made attempts to interfere in the 2019 Canadian federal election and 2021 Canadian federal election and threatened Canadian politicians, according to Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and the Parliament of Canada’s Foreign Interference Commission.

    PRC manipulation activities in Canada are well documented, but it would be extremely naive to think they aren’t pulling the same shit in other countries.
