Canadian Police Investigate Death of British Columbia Man Targeted by China
Breitbart ^ | 09/22/2023 | JOHN HAYWARD

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) on Thursday announced it will investigate the death of Wei Hu, a 57-year-old Chinese dissident who ostensibly committed suicide in July 2021.

More than two years later, the RCMP is digging into the case because it has new evidence that the Chinese government targeted Hu for harassment, possibly driving him to suicide.

The case has obvious political resonance because Canada is embroiled in a rapidly escalating diplomatic confrontation with India over the murder of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau publicly accused the Indian government of complicity in Nijjar’s assassination on Tuesday.

Canada also began a public inquiry into China’s manipulation of its political system in September. Last week, the U.S. Congress heard testimony from Michael Chong, a Canadian member of parliament who was targeted for harassment by Chinese operatives because he sponsored a resolution against the Uyghur genocide.

As Alex Christoforou said yesterday, the Sikh thing and now this China thing are Skripal 2.0.

Reminds me of an old “Get Smart” episode.

I thought he said "scripples", and wondered what he was talking about. Took me a few minutes to find it out.

Got to love those guys and their cogent geopolitical references.

British Columbia....

I’m not suggesting a tie-in but Sec. of Energy Jennifer Granholm came from British Columbia and this makes her ineligible to be President——a disappointment to Dems.

It sounds like the Neocons expected India to tell Russia to f-off, and India, instead, told the Neocons to “f-off, we’re totally into BRICS, see you gay-huggers later”.

So now the Neocons can add India to China, Russia, and Brazil, on their ‘enemies’ list.

Murder by “suicide”, Red Chinese style.
