Perhaps our new PM and his team will call out the abusers who want to influence and undermine the West.

China has a long history and culture, we helped them in WWII. If the CCP destroy their own reputation it is not any good mans job to defend them.


Two ministers in Prime Minister Mark Carney's government are condemning Hong Kong police's new arrest warrants for 19 overseas-based activists and their offer of rewards for information leading to their capture.

Officers have accused the activists of violating a national security law imposed by Beijing.

In a joint statement Saturday afternoon, Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand and Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree said "the actions taken by Hong Kong threaten the sovereignty of Canada and security of the people in this country."

"This attempt by Hong Kong authorities to conduct transnational repression abroad, including by issuing threats, intimidation or coercion against Canadians or those in Canada, will not be tolerated."

On Friday, a Hong King police statement said the group, called Hong Kong Parliament, aimed to promote self-determination and establish a "Hong Kong constitution," alleging it was using illegal means to overthrow and undermine China's fundamental system or overthrow the institutions in power in the city or China.

At the request of police, the city's court issued arrest warrants for activists Elmer Yuen, Johnny Fok, Tony Choi, Victor Ho, Keung Ka-wai and 14 others.
