A former Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) Member of Parliament, Kenny Chiu, recently shared concerns after learning he was the target of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) agents.
During a public inquiry looking into alleged meddling in Canada’s two most recent federal elections by the CCP, Chiu learned he was a target of the CCP and shared, “I have been betrayed.”
Adding, “That is how I see it.”

Rebel News reports that Chiu testified that the federal government “left him to drown” when Chinese agents allegedly targeted his campaign.
“The government doesn’t seem to care,” Chiu said on Wednesday at the Commission on Foreign Interference.
“There is a strong case to be made there was a degree of influence exerted by an outside actor in the Chinese community during the 44th general election,” alleged the Conservative Party in a secret Memorandum For The Clerk Of The Privy Council.
According to Chiu, he was never shown copies of any security warnings that he was a target of CCP agents. He subsequently lost his re-election in 2021 to the Liberal candidate Pam Bains by 3,477 votes.
In the past, Chiu had suspected that there were indeed CCP operatives working to undermine his campaign.
The Foreign Interference Commission, as it is known is being headed by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue, who had earlier said that she and her lawyers will remain “impartial” and will not be influenced by politics and began on January 29.
In January, Hogue said that she would “uncover the truth whatever it may be.”
Numerous internal memos have been released by the Commission that show that the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) as well as others deemed that Chiu was indeed targeted by foreign agents of the CCP.
When asked by Commission Counsel Matthew Ferguson asked if he was “aware of any of these reports at the time? A clearly concerned Chiu replied, “No.”
Retired CSIS Assistant Director Cherie Henderson says the agency is “very alive” to foreign interference and seems well aware of the ways it targets diaspora communities inside Canada.
Fair enough, but why didn’t anyone from her agency tell Kenny Chiu and Michael Chong the PRC… pic.twitter.com/tE0S8dMKjA

In October of 2023, The Gateway Pundit reported on an investigation by CBC News’ The Fifth Estate that for decades, the Canadian government, with direction “from Ottawa at the highest level,” has assisted Chinese law enforcement in pursuit of fugitive Chinese nationals living abroad.
Questions surrounding potential Chinese control and interference in Canada have been raised publicly.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing a potentially damning ‘foreign influence inquest’ that could also unearth Chinese ties damaging to the PM and his party.
