RCMP investigating foreign "police" stations in Canada

The RCMP says it’s investigating reports of criminal activity at so-called "police stations" reportedly set up by the People’s Republic of China in the Greater Toronto Area.

According to a recent and ongoing investigation by a Spanish-based non-government organization (NGO) called Safeguard Defenders, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has undertaken a concerted operation to force Chinese nationals living abroad who are accused of telecom and online fraud to return home.

As part of this effort, Safeguard Defenders said China has opened a total of 54 so-called police “service stations” in 30 countries, including three in Canada in the Greater Toronto Area. 

It said the stations are often presented as necessary to “accommodate the growing administrative needs of residents abroad – for example in renewing Chinese driver’s licenses remotely and other tasks traditionally considered of a consular nature.”

But the NGO claims that the stations serve a “more sinister goal” as well.

CTV News Toronto has not independently confirmed the NGO report.

In a statement to CP24 on Wednesday, RCMP did not specifically identify where the so-called police stations are located in its statement, nor did it provide any further details about the nature of the reported criminal activity.

"The (force) takes threats to the security of individuals living in Canada very seriously and is aware that foreign states may seek to intimidate or harm communities or individuals within Canada," RCMP spokesperson Camille Boily-Lavoie said. "As the RCMP is currently investigating the incident, there will be no further comment on the matter at this time.”

After this went all over the internet, the CCP sent a spokesman. 

The Response as per the above is comical: 

Consulate says stations are for driver’s licence renewal and is run by volunteers that want to do good for the people 😂

This will cost the Liberal Party, politically, quite a lot. 

Today, it seems the investigation has its focus in Québec:

---> RCMP investigating the presence of possible "police stations" run by the Chinese government in Montréal and Brossard.

We'll see. SNC lavilin was larger than this is so far (tho this isn't over yet) and he managed to walk away from that one with only a few scuffs. Hopefully this is more sticky.  It's hard to get stuff to stick ot the telfon dauphin

This is a perfect example of why Alberta must remove the RCMP.

Why? so more CCP stations can be installed? They are the ones leading the investigation.

Alberta needs an Alberta Sheriffs department.

In my view, any local Sheriffs department needs intelligence, regardless, your idea to avoid the Feds does not work in a global world of 2023 where the CCP can hack your alarm system with one click.
