February 20
15 mins

Episode Description

Dennis Molinaro, former national security analyst and author of Under Assault: Interference and Espionage in China's Secret War on Canada, discusses our country's new strategic partnership with the Middle Kingdom. He argues the Carney government has failed to define its promised "guardrails", roll out a foreign agents registry, or impose any real consequences for years of Chinese foreign interference. He adds that Canada can maintain trade relations while protecting national interests, but warns that Canada's current approach shows that the Chinese can take advantage of Canada with no consequences.
