Here's the report in question for those who want to read it in full. It's effectively a rant against alternate media narratives and dismissing all political interference impact stemming from a quote from Sep 2022 from the CSIS deputy director.

The issue of course as we know now, is not the federal election itself (for which the report focused on and for which foreign interference had a marginal effect at best), but the party candidacy nomination level that was heavily compromised. In other words, the report is meaningless with the ongoing scandal and does not effectively target current new allegations.

Oh and Trudeau's new friendly donors wanted a statue of Mao in Montreal.

For the record - I don't care if the CBC exists or not. Just pushing back against the CBC is super biased narrative.

As for this story - I don't see any indication that this government has been pro-China. We arrested that Huawei exec, we ban Chinese companies from 5G equipment. We've gone after them about Uyghur genocide, and Hong Kong.

So while obviously you don't want China influencing or pushing candidates into parliament and there should be hearings to find out why and how this happened - I don't see any sign that the government has been soft on China so I'm just following the news as it comes out and not particularly excited about it.
