High-security lab’s ties to Chinese military researchers should compel Liberals to provide documents: Opposition

... Over hours of debate in the House of Commons, Conservative, NDP and Bloc Québécois members repeatedly called on the Liberal government to provide details as to why two scientists were fired from Winnipeg’s high-security National Microbiology Laboratory (NML) earlier this year, amid an RCMP investigation into the matter...

“How could scientists with deep connections to the Chinese military be able to gain access to a high-level Canadian security-cleared laboratory with the world’s most dangerous viruses?” Conservative MP John Williamson asked during debate...

Dr. Xiangguo Qiu and her biologist husband, Keding Cheng, were escorted out of the NML in July 2019, months after the facility had transferred Ebola and Henipah viruses to China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology. In January of this year the two were fired, and their security clearances revoked...

Seven scientists at the NML have conducted experiments and co-authored studies on infectious diseases alongside Chinese military researchers, as first reported by the Globe and Mail last month. Feihu Yan, of the People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) Academy of Military Medical Sciences, worked for a time at the Winnipeg lab and was occasionally listed as an affiliate of the facility...

“Nobody in this House is suggesting that COVID-19 was manufactured in the Winnipeg lab or that Corona viruses were at any point transferred from Canada to China. But we are questioning the level of cooperation in general that seems to have been taking place between Winnipeg and its various Chinese military affiliate labs, including the one in Wuhan.”...

When the Trudeau Liberals are pathetically claiming the only motive for asking these questions is anti-Asian racism - yes, they really said that yesterday - then you KNOW they have something to hide!!

Trudeau Liberals can't stop apologizing for China

The fact that China has NOT paid any penalty for the World Wide damage for their Wuhan lab is atrocious, to say the least. Even if it had meant war, I personally believe that Trump should have leveled Wuhan Lab and any surrounding areas that could have been involved in this mass deception of “experimental warfare”. It reminds me of the attitude of the European leaders towards Hitler before WWII. You must confront evil sooner, rather than later or the price will be worse than before.

We are in the second phase of the typical three-phase scandal.

Phase 1: Suspicion and theories

Phase 2: Proof and evidence are uncovered

Phase 3: A staged investigation and dismissal of all charges

Phase 4: Silence anyone who contradicts the dismissal
