Wayne Eyre, told MPs that Russia and China consider themselves to be at war with the West and Canada must rise to meet this challenge. Eyre was meeting with MPs at the Commons standing committee on national security to talk about the threat Russia poses to Canada. Eyre said Russia and China don’t differentiate between peace and war and are actively seeking to challenge the West. “Russia and China are not just looking at regime survival but regime expansion. They consider themselves to be at war with the West,” he said. “They strive to destroy the social cohesion of liberal democracies and the credibility of our own institutions to ensure our model of government is seen as a failure.” Eyre said the threat is broader than the war in Ukraine, but a systemic effort to change the way the world has been structured. “The rules based international order, which has underpinned world stability, and indeed our national prosperity for generations is faltering. It needs to be defended, the gravity of these times, should be apparent to all.” Eyre said this is all happening as the military faces a recruitment challenge. The forces estimate they’re 10,000 people short right now. He said that is now a top priority. “I am very worried about our numbers and that’s why we’re putting as a priority effort, the reconstitution of our military.” unquote Canada's military chief warns China and Russia are 'at war with the West' (msn.com) This comes at a time when Trudeau is allowing China to have three police stations in Toronto under the guise of a different name and at a time when the Liberals are attacking and demoralizing our military with their gender ideology and progressivism. No wonder people don't want to join the Canadian Forces. These outposts in Canada can be used as operations centres to manipulate and intimate their diaspora who they consider as under the authority of the CCP to expand their influence and control in the west. This extends into politics and society at all levels. In China, any foreign actor would be arrested and charged with espionage immediately and given a long sentence. Our justice system is different and it does not operate that way. Edited October 6, 2022 by blackbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
