Carney & Trump, DEI still in play and more: Links 1 for April 1, 2025

Hong Kong Watch, a prominent human rights organization, has urged the RCMP to investigate Liberal candidate Paul Chiang over remarks the group alleges may constitute foreign interference in Canada’s federal election, set for April 28.

In an open letter to RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme, dated Monday, the group pointed to comments Chiang reportedly made at a Chinese-language news conference in January.

According to media reports, the Markham-Unionville incumbent encouraged attendees to turn Conservative candidate Joe Tay over to the Chinese consulate in Toronto to claim a $1-million bounty placed on Tay by the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

“To everyone here, you can claim the one million dollar bounty if you bring (Joe Tay) to Toronto’s Chinese Consulate,” Chiang is quoted as saying. He has not denied the statement.

Canadian police have never, as far as I know, pressed charges against a ranking politician. Certainly no convictions or jail. The US is the only nation I am aware of that even approximates rule of law. But Canada certainly doesn’t. We have sanctimony and invented outside threats instead.

These ties could be assets in the game of Carney S’il was elected prime minister at the end of April.

The’ affair dates back to 2018 when Brookfield signed a 99-year lease to rent the entire’a 41-story tower of the Kushner family in the heart of Manhattan in New York. Total invoice: 1.1 G$ US.

The Canadian company paid the 99 years of rent in one go rather than’annually. This highly unusual gesture ensured a massive and rapid entry of’argent to the company Kushner, which was precisely to repay 1.2 G$ US in mortgage a few months later in February 2019.

Brookfield is a sprawling Canadian’investment firm with interests around the world in infrastructure,’real estate, renewable energy and private equity (see other text).
