The RCMP provided a statement to CTV News saying the force's radio communications are protected with end-to-end encryption and that radio frequency filtration equipment "poses no security concerns nor does it allow access to radio communications."
CTV News has reached out to PSPC and DND but has not received a response. Fisheries and Oceans Canada was unable to respond by CTV's deadline. During a media availability in Montreal on Wednesday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he found it "disconcerting" that amid warnings about foreign interference, parts of Canada's civil service "were signing contracts that have questionable levels of security for our operations and our national security institutions like the RCMP."
Speaking to reporters on his way to question period, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said the contract should be cancelled. He added: "I think that we as a government, we as a country, should not allow countries and governments and government-owned enterprises that are known for espionage to sell technology that is related to our telecommunications in this country, because that raises risks of espionage and other security problems."
"One of the reasons why we put in place a process that looks at the potential opportunities or vectors for foreign interference in the context of contracts, is to secure Canadian national interests, to secure our national security."
That gives me great comfort
Too bad liberal_party MADE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE without proper DUE DILIGENCE!
Chinada
Follow the money. Who are the investors who would benefit.
OTTAWA to review? You don't have to be deceitful, it's the Trudeau Gov't that fucked up, not the city of Ottawa The RCMP didn't do the contract without the Gov't knowing every single detail. They're corrupt and you let them get away with it Disgusting DefundTheMSM
More than a review we need the contract yanked and a head or two to roll. You reviewed the Jew hater situation too / and nothing. Enough of idle chatter. Act. cdnpoli
Why are liberals always getting into these ridiculous situations? Always after the fact. The extreme left has no protection for CA and China gains a foothold at every turn with them in charge.
Let’s go Trudeau!!! You can turn us into your beloved basic dictatorship if you keep trying!
Trudolph admires his mentor running China. Why would he get in the way of his influence in Canada. Global WEF communism is just around the corner. Canada is screwed.
In the process they should fire the failure occupying the helm of the RCMP who doesn't appear to have enough common sense and personal ethical standard to recognise that she should have resigned long ago.
Political distraction from Canada's faltering economy and housing bust.
Conservative Media pretends it's a crime to do business with China, after Conservatives signed FIPA. 'Only liberals are doing business with China!!'
Canada has imports 50B and exports 20B worth of goods from China annually, clearly a huge trade deficit, if you guys hate China that much, you should cancel all trades with China as soon as possible.
Justin Trudeau wants to turn canada into china
The Prime Minstrel knows his place.
lol…Canada is in the CCP’s back pocket. Has been for a long time.
Another fail by the liberal_party stop saying Ottawa it is liberal_party that is responsible cdnpoli
Liberals love the Chinese.
Seems one hand just doesn't know what the other is doing when it comes to the Libs....or did they just get caught?
Why do we allow Chinese ownership of our assets? Why won't China let us do the same in their country? Stop working with China. You cannot trust the CCP.
Trudeau admires China but I’m sure he’s feeling shame after Xi scolded him
if someday, Xi slaps Trudeau on his face, it won't surprise me.
Ottawa is a city. WHO exactly will be doing this
oh ffs 🤦🏼♀️
Canadian government is China & RCMP is government ... Wake TF UP !!
Okay! The liberals are the ones who set it up and approved it!
Thanks for telling us. 2 years later.
Can they get anything right
Trudeau admires Communist Chinese Party His daddy Klaus Schwab admires China's model of governance This is not a coincidence Police stations as well from China..
looking like keystone cops these days......maybe just a distraction to shine light elsewhere....sleazy lieberals at it again
Trudeau loves China he wants Canada to become more like them
oooooooo
Too late 😪
Incredible 🤯
Who are the incompetents who did this? Fired and no pension. LiberalsMustGo
What a Shit Show!
Don't worry, Justin will teach China a thing or two.
