Liberal MP Han Dong is alleged to have been helped by the Chinese consulate in Toronto during his 2019 nomination race, by bussing in seniors & students to vote for him, according to CSIS docs & sources CSIS asked the PM's senior staff to rescind Dong's nomination, per sources

It appears that this may be a simple translation of mandarin…to be clear it the word “immediate” & “delay” that sound similar, not immediately If so, much more likely #2 is the case, and why G&M wasn’t provided the transcript #cdnpoli

Earlier today, I heard, third hand, that Dong believes a Mandarin translation error is to blame for this unfortunate situation, that the word for "delay" and "immediately" sound very similar.

That’s important because the story also says PMO was provided with the transcript & concluded “no action was necessary” So one of two things is possible, 1) PMO read the transcript and it confirmed the allegation cited in the Global story #cdnpoli
