主持人: 加拿大政治局势动荡不安,特鲁多辞职后,自由党可能失去执政地位。精英人士卡尼似乎在幕后接替了特鲁多的位置,尽管保守党在民调中领先,但未来走向仍不明朗。如果保守党获胜,可能会对中国干预和芬太尼问题采取更强硬的立场。美国也面临类似问题,存在与中国共产党关系密切的根深蒂固的官僚机构和精英阶层。 嘉宾: 我同意你的观点。美国政府内部也存在混乱,对政府腐败和裙带关系的揭露越来越多。世界各地的人们越来越清楚地看到政府是如何运作的,就像令人作呕的香肠一样。 主持人: 是的,有很多令人不满的地方。与此同时,对腐败的调查也可能危及中情局的网络。我们正处于一个疯狂的时代。 嘉宾: 我的新书《蓄意失明》第三版增加了关于加拿大中国干预选举丑闻的内容。政府报告显示,加拿大高级官员与包括中国在内的外国政府有勾结行为。魁北克司法组织的报告认为,中国试图干预,但加拿大政客并非故意参与不当行为。特鲁多政府就中国干预指控展开调查,但结论是未发现不当行为。我不会为特鲁多道歉,并会继续报道相关事件。霍格法官的调查报告认为,没有发生严重的不当行为,但她与特鲁多关系密切。许多警务和情报人员认为霍格法官的报告是为了掩盖真相。 嘉宾: 文章声称我关于韩冬的报道不实,毁了他的生活。但霍格法官的报告也发现了中国学生被胁迫投票的不规则行为。我报道了韩冬的说法,以及其他关于学生和中国代理人的报告。我认为霍格法官的报告是为特鲁多政府粉饰太平。

Well, Trudeau has resigned. It seems like the Liberal Party might not be in power much longer. Do you think that's going to change the situation in Canada? The present situation is Mark Carney, you know, an extremely elite Canadian and global banker figure, sort of has taken the baton from Justin Trudeau under the table. Justin Trudeau's elite, you know, office staff,

have sort of coagulated around Mark Carney's leadership. So there's a leadership contest, but it looks like Carney's being sort of coronated to take Trudeau, the unpopular former prime minister's position, and the Liberals have bounced in the polls. And I just saw a recent Canadian poll, whether you can trust it or not, that it

Mr. Carney was seen as the best one to negotiate with Donald Trump rather than the Conservative leader who had been enjoying popularity, Pierre Palliev. So the Conservatives are still ahead in the polls. Will we have an election in a month or two? It's not even clear. Probably by October, I believe that's highly likely, but you just don't know in Canada. It's a very wobbly state. If the Conservative opposition wins,

Certainly, I think there will be you know a stronger line taken on Chinese interference on fentanyl broadly speaking on the issues that the Trump administration's worried about But it's it's not entirely clear. We will have a change of government I mean also sounds like a similar problem with the US where there is just an entrenched bureaucracy and elite that is very much in bed with the Chinese Communist Party and

Yeah, I agree with that. I mean, there's so much in flux in the U.S. government right now. It's hard to see which way the ball is bouncing, but you are having revelations of, you know, of course, the funding across the world and people getting like a Twitter files-like revelation of what might be happening in terms of, you know, fraud and patronage and graft or

sort of DEI programs in far off countries with American taxpayer funds spent. So yeah, I think a lot of people around the world are just getting a lot more visibility on how the sausage is made, so to speak, in government. And just like the actual sausage, it's disgusting. Yeah.

Yeah, a lot not to like, but yeah, so much is going on. At the same time, you know, with this digging into graft, who knows what CIA networks could get burned at the same time. It's just wild times we live in.

Now, your book, Willful Blindness, I don't know if we've mentioned your book yet. Have you held it? I don't think we... Maybe one and a half times or so. It just got a third edition. I'm curious, what's new? Yeah, what is new is the story that some leaders in Canada don't want reported. It's the story of the Chinese election interference scandal. You know that I broke this story in Canadian media about...

intelligence allegations that a number of candidates were clandestinely supported by China in recent elections. And so I detail how I broke that story. I detail the facts that came out in commissions that looked into the election interference allegations. And by the way, there's controversy between some of the government reports that say

Yes, there were people, Canadian high-level elected officials knowingly working with foreign states, including China, involved in clandestine transfers, inappropriately meeting foreign officials. And then another report just came out from a Quebec justice group.

who, by the way, some have noted has some long-term historic connections to liberal prime ministers through legal networks, who I think the broad view is this so-called Hoag Commission report essentially said,

yeah, China's trying to interfere, but none of the Canadian politicians involved were, you know, knowingly involved in anything wrong. They were naive and maybe questionable in their judgment, but nothing very traitorous happened or anything all that bad. So look, the story, the third edition, which is now up in the

It rose as high as the top 20 on Amazon in Canada again Congratulations, so remember when we talked a few years ago it would it launched at number one and I guess that what's going on with President Trump's tariff threats has brought willful blindness back into the global spotlight. Well, I know in response to a lot of this you know the accusations of Chinese interference in Canadian elections the the

Trudeau government launched a commission to investigate itself and they found no wrongdoing. There you go. So are you going to issue an apology to Trudeau? Am I going to issue an apology to Trudeau? No, I will not. No, I will continue. But they found no wrongdoing.

Yes, you're right. The Quebec judge, Justice Hogue, who worked at a law firm in Quebec with Justin Trudeau's father, and I believe Jean Chrétien, a very pro-China prime minister, that commission appointed by Justin Trudeau investigated the Canadian government and found nothing too bad happened.

Will I be apologizing to Justin Trudeau? No, I'll be continuing to report that my Canadian police sources say just as the photos in willful blindness raised concerns about Justin Trudeau sitting beside organized crime targets with connections to the Chinese government, and I have said that raised my eyebrows or raised some concerns there.

So too, I will report that Canadian police tell me in their own surveillance, they have similar and ongoing concerns. Now, there was an article I read that came out this month in The Breach that was extremely critical of your reporting. And I'm sure you've come across that.

One of the things that they claim is that you had talked about the former Prime Minister Han Dong. MP. Sorry, MP, MP, PM. It's the same. It's the same thing. Just letters. Yeah, it's a little dyslexia. Well, I hope I get this right. The article claimed that Han Dong, well, you would claim that Han Dong got votes from Chinese students

who were compelled to vote for him uh and the article said he had absolutely nothing to do with that if the incident even happened at all and claimed that you're reporting uh that hondong had been uh influenced by the ccp basically ruined his life the title of that article is is intense it said lives ruined no traders found the cost of baseless reporting on chinese interference

Yeah, I saw the headline. I don't read garbage. I make a point not to read misinformation, that I have strong suspicions of who is behind it. What Justice Hogue, even with her watered-down report, found was that Chinese children, students, were compelled, and there were irregularities in that writing. And as I reported, had Don consistently maintained that...

He had no involvement in any wrongdoing. Certainly, he did nothing wrong. So I reported his side. Other reports, multiple reports have pointed to the students and an unidentified Chinese proxy behind these activities. And so the breach or whoever else can report what they want.

It's still a free country, you know, or wherever they're reporting from. I don't know. But do I take it seriously? Haven't read it. I don't care to read it. Do I take Mr. Don's assertions that he didn't know anything was happening seriously? Yes. And I've reported them as such. Well, that that article was based largely on the report by Commissioner Hogue.

The same one who's tight with Trudeau. Wow. Paper wraps rock. Something like that. Yeah, I've talked to three former CSIS officers, you know, in another podcast. And we a lot of people agree that is people that know that there's there's all kinds of good documentation that came out in the whole commission that.

You know, curious people, people of honest intellect can go in there and Canada's, you know, culture, governance has been changed. And people can read those documents for themselves and judge whether the breach or anyone else is right or wrong. But a lot of people in police and intelligence do believe that Justice Hoag is

like Trudeau's associate, David Johnston, before her, was kind of just doing their job to whitewash things of concern that are of concern, I believe, to President Trump and the American government as well.
