Once again, Sam, your reporting has been clear and condemning of the laws in place in Canada through which transnational criminals have thrived. United Front Foreign Work Department is a force which needs to be controlled and eliminated from Canada. Federal Port police must be reinstated with the legal supports needed to clean up our own mess. Politicians who are compromised and benefit from donations received from criminals need to be named and shamed. The Federal government for the past ten years has turned a blind eye to harm done in Canada which has given shelter to hostile foreign governments, gangs and erosion of public safety.

Hey folks…. here is how it works! In all probability BOTH the Canadian Border Services and the Canadian police….. know of the criminals and the poisons being exported … and tip off police and border services of those carrying the poison leaving Canada. They do this BECAUSE they KNOW that if they bring it to the attention of the authorities in Canada…….. NOTHING will become of the issue.

They are fully aware that other countries take drug peddling very seriously.

As far as drugs being “IMPORTED” to Canada,…. well,…. that’s a different story… especially so in B.C. where the B.C. Prosecution…”Service” is shit scared to prosecute the drug peddling criminal element because they refuse to due their duty…. by using the secretly generated …..””””prosecutorial discretion”….. job action.

This has been known for some time. The lack of effective sustained police operations targeting these drug manufacturing and transhipment operations strongly suggests infiltration and corruption of some port and police personel, and all the way up to local and national politicians and bureaucrats. If so, this is not a small problem and will take foreign assistance to help clean it up.

It's no wonder Trump has come down hard on Canada for the fentanyl problem. In the meantime, this gov't is laser focused in pushing through bills C8, and C9 to silence citizens by removing internet access and making media posts punishable for up to life in prison.

Thanks for your reporting on the drug cartel problem in Canada, especially as state funded media will never report on it.

In “Unconditional Surender, Winning the war on drugs in the 21st century”, author Robert Ingram suggests that the drug scene in the West beginning after WW11, was a continuation of the Opium Wars that Britain launched in the 1800’s and won, allowing them to continue funnelling opium into China. Much of the wealth of the British aristocracy today comes from the opium trade. He says that the British governmentwas officially in the drug selling business and that banks and the City of London are involved in it today. As we know, in America, both HSBC and TD Bank have been convicted of laundering drug money.

It’s NOT the constitutional laws and case laws that’s preventing prosecution of the drug gangs and money launderers ….. it’s FEAR of the dangerous criminal element, by the prosecutors who fear for their lives and family members.

That is why the B.C. NDP government introduced the Forfeiture Act to allow seizure of assets etc from proceeds of crime.

Good on you Sam for your reporting and getting it to this political level. HOWEVER, don’t hold your breath that any action of significant value will occur. Same shit will result as what happened in B.C. after “the biggest money laundering case in the history of B.C. was abandoned when the prosecutors fled the scene at the door of the court room.

Pressed into action by the NDP,… they ordered a “B.C. Money laundering “Inquiry”. HOWEVER, to make dam sure the Inquiry woukd go nowhere, they mandated Judge Cullen “not to inquire into the relating “prosecutorial discretion” that allows prosecutor to IGNORE their duty by prosecuting these gangs.

Another case in point? To satisfy Trump’s demands of stopping the flow of deadly drugs into the USA……the Carney’s Liberals appointed a “Fentanyl Czar”…… who has recently admitted he has drizzly squat power to do anything. However, this Czar will feed from the public trough .. filled with taxpayer money.

However Sam…….. good on you and your reporting… but be very careful that you don’t end up like Zhu and the prosecution of his illegal bank Silver International. He was murdered in a hit.

(More on that story on an upcoming post)
