For the week of Feb. 2, 2025:
The Hogue Commission’s final report confirmed but downplayed China’s interference in Canadian elections. It also found no traitors in Parliament.
One of the people who testified at the foreign interference commission’s public hearings was Kenny Chiu, the Conservative MP in Steveston-Richmond East from 2019 until 2021, when he was the victim of a Chinese social media disinformation campaign. He is Bob Mackin’s guest on this edition.
Also on this edition, an update on the Friends of Memorial South Park. Their grassroots campaign forced Vancouver civic officials to move the planned FIFA World Cup 26 training venue to the Vancouver Whitecaps’ facility at the University of B.C. Cindy Heinrichs and Beth Ringdahl spoke with Bob Mackin at a Jan. 25 party in the park, which turns 100 next year.
Plus Pacific Rim and Pacific Northwest headlines.
