Repost for Canada Friends of Hong King:

Launching of DOTTING THE MAP, a Visual Guide for Canadian Voters on canfriendshk.ca

April 7, 2025 (Vancouver) – Canadian Friends of Hong Kong (CFHK) and Found in Translation (FiT) have teamed up to launch DOTTING THE MAP, a visual guide in nine maps providing a cross-sectional view into the complex picture of CCP infiltration and united front (UF) networks in Canada.

The two NGOs, formed by Canadians of both Hong Kong and mainland Chinese origin, have been outspoken about foreign political interference especially that of the PRC.

DOTTING THE MAP will be carried on the CFHK website: canfriendshk.ca and via Substack of FiT at https://foundintran.substack.com/

Map 1 “Follow the Money, Follow our PMs” in PDF format is attached for your preview. Please visit canfriendshk.ca to review all nine maps.

DOTTING THE MAP, which focuses on how to identify and counter agents of Beijing’s political warfare, also includes:

• A list of sample questions that voters can ask of candidates during an election, and of politicians after they are elected
• The four identifiable toxic traits (4Cs) of united front strategy
• Distinguishing between the PRC and the Canadian Chinese community, and
• What We as Voters Can Do

The CFHK-FiT team hopes that DOTTING THE MAP will serve as a tool to enhance understanding about the PRC strategy and approaches in Canada. It is further hoped that voters would be able to share observations, exchange information and brainstorm ideas, fostering a national conversation about issues that are crucial to Canada’s security and interests.

Quotes:

“This highly impressive guide gives a detailed schematic of the tangled relations between agencies of the Chinese Communist Party, Chinese business, Beijing supported astro-turf social organizations in the guise of Chinese diaspora civil society, their Chinese-Canadian leaders (many selected and vetted by Beijing) and Canada’s political and economic elite.” Dr. Charles Burton, Senior Fellow, Sinopsis, who writes the Foreword

“The visual guide contains fascinating pictorial charts showing the flow of business deals or other favours to Canadian business and political leaders. … In particular, the nine graphics of Beijing’s network of links with the upper echelons in Canadian business and political life is far more potent than a simple verbal description.”
Jonathan Manthorpe, best-selling author and veteran journalist, who writes the Endorsement
