Arrest Liberal MP Paul Chiang for Criminal Counselling of Kidnapping

Leave a comment
Ex-Police Officer Chiang Knew The Law

In January 2025, Liberal Member of Parliament and former York Regional Police Sergeant Paul Chiang publicly counselled supporters of the Chinese Communist Party to abduct Conservative candidate Joe Tay and deliver him to the Chinese Embassy in exchange for a $1 million bounty.

The threat was not theoretical or a joke. The Chinese regime has issued a warrant for Tay’s arrest due to his pro-freedom videos, filmed and published from Canada. Chiang’s incitement to have a Canadian citizen kidnapped on Canadian soil for foreign powers is a direct violation of Canadian criminal law—and a dangerous escalation of foreign interference in our democracy.

Paul Chiang served as a police officer for 28 years. He retired as a York Regional Police Sergeant in 2020 and knows full well that counselling an abduction is a serious Criminal Code offence.

Counselling a Crime in Canada

In Canadian law, you don’t need to address a specific person to be guilty of counselling a crime. Broadcasting the encouragement to a general audience is enough, provided two conditions are met:

1.The message is deliberate and intended to encourage the offence.

2.The offence being counselled is serious and clearly defined in the Criminal Code.

This principle is upheld in precedent, most notably:

R. v. Hamilton, [2005] 2 S.C.R. 432 (opens in new tab)

Hamilton sold email packages with instructions for credit card fraud and bomb-making. He was convicted of counselling fraud and mischief—even though he never communicated with specific individuals, and no crimes were proven to have occurred.

Key takeaway from the Supreme Court:

“Counselling” can occur even where the person being counselled is unknown or never acts—as long as the accused intended their words to encourage the offence and it is reasonably foreseeable someone could act on it.

Criminal Code Provisions

Section 464 – Counselling an Uncommitted Offence

Even if no one follows through, it’s still a crime to counsel an indictable offence:

464(a):

“Everyone who counsels another person to commit an indictable offence is, if the offence is not committed, guilty of an indictable offence and liable to the same punishment…”

This applies to public speeches, videos, blogs, or social media posts encouraging serious offences like abduction or forcible confinement.

Section 22 – Counselling Committed Offences

If someone acts on the counselling—even in a different manner than originally suggested—the counsellor is legally a party to the crime and fully criminally liable.

Section 279 – Kidnapping

279(1):

“Every person commits an offence who kidnaps a person with intent:

(a) to confine or imprison them;

(b) to transport them out of Canada;

(c) to hold them for ransom…”

Penalty: Indictable offence, punishable by life imprisonment.

The Rule of Law Demands Criminal Charges

Time to Act

Paul Chiang’s public incitement to kidnap a Canadian citizen for a hostile foreign power is a textbook case of counselling a serious crime. The law is clear. His status as a sitting MP and former police sergeant only aggravates the offence.

It’s time for law enforcement to do their job—no special treatment, no political protection.

Paul Chiang must be arrested and criminally charged.

The Secret JFK Files: How Australia and the CIA Hid Assassination Warnings About Soviet Ties

Declassified Documents Reveal a 60-Year Cover-Up of Australia’s Role in Suppressing Key JFK Assassination Leads

For decades, the Australian Security Intelligence Organization (ASIO) played a largely unknown role in suppressing critical evidence related to the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy. Newly analyzed declassified documents confirm that ASIO’s chief, Sir Charles Spry, personally lobbied the CIA to keep Warren Commission Document CD-971 hidden from public view. This document detailed anonymous phone calls to the U.S. Embassy in Canberra warning of Soviet financial involvement in JFK’s murder.

These revelations, combined with the fact that portions of ASIO’s correspondence remained classified until 2023, suggest that Australian intelligence agencies were more deeply entangled in the cover-up than previously known. Even though CD-971 was partially declassified in 1976, intelligence agencies on both sides of the Pacific continued redacting and withholding critical details about the Canberra calls for six decades.

CD-971: The Assassination Warnings Intelligence Agencies Buried

CD-971 is a CIA memorandum from November 29, 1963, documenting two key anonymous phone calls made to the U.S. Embassy in Canberra, Australia:

  • October 15, 1962: A caller warned of a plot to assassinate President Kennedy.
  • November 23, 1963: Hours after JFK’s murder, a second call suggested that the Soviet Union had financed the assassination.

The caller, claiming to be a Polish chauffeur working for the Soviet Embassy in Canberra, provided specific intelligence that was forwarded to U.S. Naval Intelligence and later to the CIA. However, the CIA only became fully aware of these warnings on November 24, 1963—one day after Kennedy’s death.

While mainstream news reports have framed these calls as “crank calls,” intelligence memos from the time suggest otherwise. If the CIA and ASIO truly believed these were hoaxes, why did they fight for six decades to keep CD-971 suppressed?

ASIO and the CIA’s Coordinated Cover-Up

President Kennedy

Newly released records confirm that Sir Charles Spry, head of ASIO, personally wrote to CIA Director Richard Helms in October 1968, urging him not to declassify CD-971 despite increasing pressure for transparency. A memo from the CIA’s Far East Division Chief, William Nelson, also supported Spry’s position, marking this as a coordinated international effort.

According to a recently unsealed letter from Helms to Spry, dated November 1968:

“There is not, at the present time, any intention to release [CD-971].”

Helms further assured Spry that if the issue arose again, ASIO’s objections provided enough justification to keep the document secret indefinitely.

This wasn’t just a routine classification issue—it was a deliberate, high-level suppression of intelligence that could have altered the official narrative of JFK’s murder.

Even After 1976, the Cover-Up Continued

While CD-971 was partially declassified in 1976, it has now been revealed that significant portions of ASIO’s correspondence with the CIA remained classified until 2023. A News.com.au investigation found that ASIO and the CIA fought for nearly 60 years to prevent public access to the full unredacted records.

This raises disturbing questions:

  • What exactly was redacted or withheld in the 1976 release?
  • Why did intelligence agencies continue suppressing these records decades later?
  • Did ASIO have deeper knowledge of Soviet connections to the assassination than publicly acknowledged?

ASIO’s Role Was Likely Stronger Than the CIA’s

A 1968 Naval Investigative Service memo, previously overlooked in news reports, states that U.S. Naval Intelligence had no objections to declassifying CD-971—but still required clearance from ASIO.

This means that ASIO wasn’t just consulted as a courtesy—it had an active veto over whether U.S. intelligence could disclose the document. This revelation places Australia’s intelligence agencies at the center of the decades-long suppression effort.

What Was the Real Purpose of the Canberra Calls?

The most explosive claim in CD-971 is the assertion that the Soviet Union may have put up $100,000 to finance Kennedy’s assassination.

This raises two possibilities:

  1. Genuine Intelligence: The calls contained real information about Soviet involvement, which intelligence agencies later suppressed to avoid Cold War escalation.
  2. Disinformation Operation: The calls were part of an effort to shift blame to the Soviets, muddying the waters in the immediate aftermath of the assassination.

Regardless of which scenario is true, the fact remains that ASIO and the CIA actively buried this intelligence for decades.

A 60-Year Suppression Finally Exposed

For over 60 years, ASIO and the CIA worked together to keep critical JFK assassination warnings from public view. The newly uncovered files confirm that Australian intelligence played a far greater role in hiding key leads about Soviet connections than previously known.

Even after CD-971 was declassified in 1976, Australian and U.S. intelligence agencies continued redacting and withholding key documents—only fully releasing them in 2023.

Key Unanswered Questions:

  1. Why did ASIO fight so aggressively to keep CD-971 classified?
  2. What exactly was removed or altered before its 1976 release?
  3. Did ASIO have direct knowledge of Soviet financing for JFK’s assassination?
  4. What other intelligence records remain hidden?

With today’s JFK files shedding light on one of the biggest cover-ups in Cold War history, it is time for researchers and historians to demand the full, unredacted truth.

Disgrace on the Bench: How Canadian Judges Betray Public Safety

Thug-Pampering Judges: Robert F. “Get Out of Jail Free” Goldstein, Lise “Bleeding Heart” Favreau, Jonathan “Hug a Thug” Dawe

With No Way to Remove Them, Our Only Option Is to Name and Shame

Canada’s justice system isn’t just out of touch – it’s actively hostile to public safety, with each reckless ruling exposing judges driven by a dangerous agenda.

Judges in Canada are appointed, not elected. They have a job for life.

With no viable removal mechanism, our only course of action is to publicly name and shame judges who betray Canada and Canadians.

So here we go…

A Gangland Shooter Walks Free

No Prison for Gang Shooter

The latest outrage? Toronto gang member Terrell Burke-Whittaker fired a loaded handgun toward a busy highway during a bar shootout that left two wounded – yet he won’t serve a single day in jail.

That’s right. While law-abiding Canadian gun owners are harassed and disarmed, criminals can fire indiscriminately in public – and walk away with nothing more than a slap on the wrist.

The Ontario Court of Appeal acknowledged that Burke-Whittaker’s conditional sentence was demonstrably unfit but still refused to impose real prison time – allowing this armed thug to continue serving his sentence in the comfort of his home.

Justice William Hourigan dissented, warning that this decision “undermines our credibility.” No kidding!

Hourigan didn’t mince words:

“If an offender can bring a handgun to a funeral, fire it towards the busiest highway in the country, ultimately avoiding incarceration, then it is evident that this court’s warnings about handgun violence have been rendered futile.” Justice William Hourigan dissenting opinion R. v Terrell Burke-Whittaker

Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert F. “Get Out of Jail Free” Goldstein led the charge in letting this gunman off easy. His excuse? The thug had started a vending machine business and signed up for firefighter training. Apparently, that was enough to erase the fact that he brought a loaded gun to a gang gathering and fired toward a highway.

You can’t make this up.

Then Ontario Court of Appeal Judges Lise “Bleeding Heart” Favreau and Jonathan “Hug a Thug” Dawe upheld the disgraceful sentence.

Favreau even admitted that deterrence should have mattered more but still refused to overturn the sentencing decision. Dawe, going even further, actively defended the leniency. If this isn’t judicial corruption in action, what is?

“If these judges and their families had to live in the crime-ridden neighborhoods they neglect, they wouldn’t be so eager to let gang shooters walk free.”

This Isn’t Just One Case – It’s a Pattern of Betrayal

Burke-Whittaker isn’t an isolated case. Canada’s courts have been on a downward spiral for years, routinely siding with criminals over victims, gutting deterrence, and turning sentencing into a complete farce. Consider just these few examples:

  • R. v. Gladue (1999) – Established a two-tier justice system with special sentencing considerations for Indigenous offenders.
  • R. v. Nur (2015) – The Supreme Court struck down mandatory minimum sentences for gun crimes, enabling lenient rulings.
  • R. v. Lavallee (2017) – Citing the offender’s Indigenous background and difficult upbringing, a Manitoba judge imposed no jail time for a severe assault that left a victim permanently injured.
  • R. v. Vader (2017) – Travis Vader was convicted of manslaughter rather than murder in the deaths of elderly couple Lyle and Marie McCann. He received a life sentence but with parole eligibility after just 7 years.
  • R. v. McClintic (2018) – Terri-Lynne McClintic, convicted in the murder of 8-year-old Tori Stafford, was transferred from prison to an Indigenous healing lodge. Public outrage eventually forced her return to maximum security.
  • R. v. Husbands (2019) – Christopher Husbands, who opened fire in Toronto’s Eaton Centre food court killing two and injuring several others, had his murder conviction reduced to manslaughter. He is allowed to apply for parole after 16 years.
  • R. v. Bissonnette (2022) – The Supreme Court ruled that even mass murderers deserve a chance at parole after 25 years.
  • R. v. Khill (2021) – A homeowner who shot an armed intruder was put through legal hell while real criminals walk free.
  • R. v. Sharma (2022) – The Supreme Court further weakened sentencing for serious crimes under the guise of “systemic discrimination.”

Canada’s judges have betrayed their duty to the public. They treat criminals as victims and law-abiding citizens as the real offenders. Their moral compass is so broken they can’t tell justice from absurdity – or right from wrong.

Tuesday afternoon gang shootout in Toronto’s Blue Jays Way district. A child runs for cover as rapper Dimarjio Jenkins is slaughtered on the street.

A Gang Funeral, a Highway Shootout, and Judges Who Looked the Other Way

The May 26, 2020, the gangland assassination of Dimarjio Jenkins (rapper name Houdini) went down on a Tuesday afternoon in broad daylight in Toronto’s Blue Jays Way entertainment district. Jenkins was stalked and executed as his gang-affiliated “friends” exchanged fire with the assassins – sending children and bystanders running for their lives.

Toronto Police confirmed it was a gang shootout. A 15-year-old boy and a 27-year-old woman were also shot and injured. Jenkins was DOA at the hospital.

That gangland murder led directly to the “memorial” gathering where Burke-Whittaker armed himself and fired toward Highway 401 – one of Canada’s busiest highways.

Burke-Whittaker and other gang members return fire to a car on Highway 401

The media calls it a “memorial.” Let’s be real – it was a gang summit.

Armed thugs gathered at a bar at 55 Beverly Hills Drive to honour one of their own, knowing full well that another shootout could erupt.

And what did Terrell Burke-Whittaker do? He packed a loaded gun and got ready to kill. The Court of Appeal even admitted he wasn’t acting in self-defense. He was there, locked and loaded, waiting for a fight.

The bar is adjacent to Highway 401, and at 11:22pm a dark vehicle stopped on the highway shoulder and rival gang members unleashed a barrage of shots at persons in the bar parking lot.

When bullets started flying, Burke-Whittaker fired towards rival gang members and Highway 401, one of Canada’s busiest highways, where innocent drivers and bystanders could have been killed. Two people were wounded in the shootout.

Despite all this, Burke-Whittaker avoided a prison sentence because he started a vending machine business and applied to be a firefighter.

Read that again… Despite all this, Burke-Whittaker avoided a prison sentence because he started a vending machine business and applied to be a firefighter.

Are we supposed to believe that having a job magically erases the gravity of his crime?

Meanwhile, law-abiding citizens who dare to protect themselves are relentlessly prosecuted. If you store your legally owned firearm incorrectly, expect jail time. If you defend your home against an armed intruder, expect to be charged. If you refuse to bow down to activist judges and their twisted ideology, expect to be vilified and labeled a menace to society.

Enough is Enough

Canadians deserve judges who prioritize public safety over criminal sob stories. We deserve laws and sentences that actually deter crime instead of encouraging it. And we deserve judges who treat criminals like criminals – not misunderstood souls in need of a hug.

Until we purge our courts of these activist judges, Canada will continue its descent into lawlessness. Gun crime will rise. Criminals will grow bolder. And ordinary Canadians will be left to fend for themselves while our so-called justice system ties their hands.

These judges aren’t just failing us – they’re betraying us. The courts have become sanctuaries for criminals, while law-abiding Canadians are left defenseless.

It’s time for relentless public pressure, naming and shaming these disgraceful judges until there’s no place left for them to hide.
