Diane Francis: Ottawa must protect Canadian industry from foreign meddling

“Fake Twitter and Facebook accounts were created to give China, the largest producer of rare earth minerals, a competitive advantage,” Bloomberg reported last week. “The fake accounts claimed that the processing facility would spur irreversible environmental damage and radioactive contamination that could cause cancer and deformities in newborns.”

This is not the first time Canada’s resource industry has been targeted by foreigners. Last summer, an Alberta Public Inquiry that, between 2003 and 2019, a collection of foreign entities spent $1.28 billion on “Canadian-based environmental initiatives,” designed to impede Canadian energy development.that the Canadian federal government was directly involved in damaging the energy industry in Canada. Between 2004 and 2019, over $414 million in federal funds was given to, some of which were directly involved in anti-energy campaigns. Only $41 million of this was handed out before Trudeau’s election in 2015.

The Liberal government should not have been financing one side against another in order to influence public opinion or, worse, to influence its own regulatory bodies. As Mac Van Wielingen, founder of ARC Resources and a prominent philanthropist and investor in Calgary, told me in an interview recently: “Undisclosed private funding of activism is the problem. That’s the essence and foreign funding is the worst example.

Now it appears that China has been involved in damaging Canadian projects — a matter that should be investigated by the resource industry here. The Alberta Inquiry was the first to do so and revealed that millions of dollars in American money was funnelled to try and strand the country’s oil sands and create regulatory gridlock in order to block the construction or enlargement of pipelines, transmission lines and economic development.

You’re barking up the wrong tree Diane. In case you haven’t noticed, the Liberal government with their woke climatard agenda is the biggest enemy of Canadian resource industries.
