A group of top national security experts is sounding the alarm: Canada’s relationship with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has crossed from economic engagement into a full-blown democratic threat.
At a Dec. 6 forum in Toronto, former RCMP proceeds-of-crime director Garry Clement called the CCP “the biggest transnational organized crime group ever seen,” warning that Beijing is actively infiltrating Canada’s political, business, and cultural institutions. Through the United Front Work Department, the CCP co-opts elites, business leaders, community organizations, and media outlets—while intimidating and surveilling dissidents “on a daily basis.”
Clement also linked Beijing to the fentanyl crisis, saying the CCP could shut down precursor shipments to Canada “if they really wanted to,” but instead allows the flow as a form of “disruptive warfare,” echoing the tactics of the Opium Wars.
Dean Baxendale, CEO of the China Democracy Fund, described the CCP’s presence in Canada as “warfare without combat”—hybrid operations involving cyber-espionage, organized crime, financial coercion, port influence, propaganda networks, and targeted manipulation of public opinion. He warned that China’s reach touches everything from universities to housing markets to local elections.
Dr. Maria Cheung emphasized that Canadian intelligence agencies identify the CCP as the most sophisticated and persistent foreign interference actor targeting Canada, weaponizing media, lawfare, and psychological pressure to silence critics and reshape Canadian discourse.
Human rights lawyer David Matas detailed multiple cases of transnational repression on Canadian soil—from Falun Gong practitioners being targeted and expelled from community groups, to consular officials distributing hate material, to foreign events about human rights in China being shut down under CCP pressure.
The experts all delivered the same message: Canada is being manipulated, infiltrated, and coerced by a hostile foreign power—and the relationship is now a liability, not an asset.
Their call to action is blunt: Canadians must push for legislative reforms, stronger law enforcement tools, diaspora protection, digital literacy, and public awareness—and above all, recognize that the CCP’s grip on our institutions is not normal and cannot continue.
Canada must decouple—politically, economically, and institutionally—from the CCP’s influence before the damage becomes irreversible.

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.

WEF/UN/Globalists have proven they can’t be trusted now given the key to Canada. Are you awake yet Canadians??
REPORT: UN Climate Scientists Flip on the Climate Doomsday Narrative | Stand on Guard CLIP
WATCH Have they been lying about climate change this whole time? Are they cancelling climate change doomsday scenario for the data centers?
The UN climate scientists admit the high emission doomsday scenarios were overblown. UN climate change scientists flip: climate change not too bad anymore according to a new report. No doomsday on the horizon.
On this Stand on Guard clip, we question why the UN might be backtracking on previous dire predictions, suggesting a new agenda at play. We examine how this shift could be tied to the proliferation of data center construction and the increasing demands on our power grid from artificial intelligence. It's crucial to consider the broader implications for our communities and hold big tech accountable.
