CANADA - According to CSIS director Richard Fadden, the head of Canada's intelligence service, two provincial cabinet ministers in Canada are under the suspicion of being controlled by foreign governments. The allegation was made last night during a CBC interview during which Fadden refused to name names.
Fadden said the MPPs in question have not hidden their association with the foreign governments. But there have recently been indications that they are shifting their public policies because of the involvement with that particular country.
CSIS and Canada's Privy Council Office are trying to determine the best way of telling the provinces that these two individuals should be watched closely. Apparently its occurred to them that releasing the info to the media was a good idea, but without actually naming the two MPPs in question.
The MPPs aren't the only ones they're watching. There is also a number of public servants in British Columbia that are also under suspicion.
“It’s not the business of CSIS to finger politicians it believes are threats to national security.”
Fadden refused to confirm whether China was involved, but instead mentioned that media reports on China’s economic espionage in Canada were not “entirely incorrect.”
“I believe the country that you mentioned was mentioned in those stories.”
Other countries listed in media reports as having spies in Canada include Russia, North Korea and rare exceptions. Spying is not limited to just government, but also corporate spies.
So if foreign governments have infiltrated Canada on the provincial level, whats to say they haven't done the same on the federal level?
