🇨🇦 Ottawa opens the door, CSIS admits China gets the keys

Former CSIS chief David Vigneault says the quiet part out loud: in a Chinese EV, everything you say, everywhere you go, who you meet, even what happens around the car, will be acquired by China. Not might. Will. And yet Canada is still letting the flow of Chinese-made EVs ramp up in 2027, as reported. So the same political class that lectures Canadians about cybersecurity, misinformation and foreign interference is happily importing rolling surveillance pods.

This is what post-national management looks like: outsource industry, hollow out sovereignty, then plug Canadians into Beijing’s data vacuum in the name of green virtue. Trudeau-era policy made this country addicted to symbolic climate optics and allergic to national interest. Vigneault already called China’s theft of Western IP a lost generation of prosperity. Now Ottawa is preparing to gift them behavioural data at scale too. Cheap cars, expensive consequences, and the usual elites pretending none of this was obvious.
