The office of Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino confirmed to CBC News that the RCMP has suspended a contract with Sinclair Technologies for radio frequency equipment. Sinclair's parent company, Norsat International, has been owned by Chinese telecommunications firm Hytera since 2017.The United States Federal Communications Commission
. The FCC says the company is one of several Chinese firms that pose "an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States or the security and safety of United States persons."Public Services and Procurement Canada previously told Radio-Canada that security concerns and Sinclair's ownership were not taken into consideration during the bidding process. The contract, awarded on October 6, 2021, was worth $549,637.
Bureaucratic fools, where was the due diligence before busting this Chinese spying equipment?
So you guys have a problem dealing with China's state owned enterprises (SOEs) and 'espionage', but do you know who created China's SOEs? The US government & capitalists, that was the deal, the US would make profit, kill unions, and China would make jobs, so it wouldn't starve.
Links to China huh? Just like Tesla and Twitter? Wow, the Federal Government is no better than Elon Musk now. Sad.
Why didn’t they do their due diligence?
Is this why Lucki feels so secure in her job?
The incompetent staff/company that oversaw the tender process and then forwarded it up the approval chain need to be held accountable.
Blackface likes China.
No shit they should suspend it
Even the most hardened Liberals must be getting tired of the constant failures, scandals, corruption, and lies of the Trudeau regime.
But how will the Chinese police stations in Canada monitor the RCMP about to raid them, then?
Yup. Now they will buy them from a Canadian company that itself buys them from a company that sources the equipment from china. It’s all sleight of hand
It's not the RCMP that awarded the contract - it is the Gov't of Canada; JustinTrudeau's gov't and cafreeland's gov't and marcomendicino's gov't. HelenaJaczek is the responsible minister, she was appointed to that post by CanadianPM in August 2022. TrudeauMustGo
I saw the light 💡.
They got caught! That's the only reason.
