Canadian lawmakers spreading false information
"Likelihood of Chinese Involvement"
On September 9, the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed that false information about opposition Conservative Party member Michael Chong, who is of Chinese descent, was spread via a communications app and criticized "the high possibility of Chinese involvement.
We convey our concerns to the Chinese government.
The Canadian government was alarmed by recent allegations that Chinese diplomats and others had attempted to intervene in past general elections in Canada to unseat politicians hostile to China.
According to the announcement, from May 4 to 13 this year, false information about Senator Chong, including his political positions and family history, was spread on the communication app WeChat.
One-third of the accounts were associated with the Chinese government, while the remaining two-thirds were anonymous.
While Canada said it could not decide, it pointed out the possibility of Chinese involvement.
Senator Chung is known for his critical stance on China.
