Chinese spies infiltrate high-tech sector
CSIS says foreign students, visiting scientists being used to steal Canada's best science, technology

China's intelligence services have systematically targeted Canada's science and technological sectors and use Chinese students and visiting scientists to steal cutting-edge technology for military use and to enhance its global economic competitiveness, according to a senior intelligence source.

In its annual report to Parliament, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service warns that foreign spies are seeking to acquire "Canada's scientific and technological developments, critical economic and information infrastructure, military and other classified information, putting at risk Canada's national security."

Although CSIS does not cite any one country, a high-level intelligence source has identified China as the "most aggressive" in seeking to illegally acquire Canadian technologies.

The official said CSIS was mainly referring to China in its 2003-04 report when the spy service discussed how "certain foreign governments direct their departments, state-owned corporations and intelligence services to engage in economic espionage against Canada."

China uses visiting students, scientists, business people and delegations to obtain industrial secrets and high technology that will benefit Chinese companies and its military-industrial complex, said the source, who asked not to be identified for national security reasons.

Russian intelligence services have also sought to obtain Canadian technology, which led to the arrests of two of their agents in 1996. However, the Canadian intelligence official said China has been the most enterprising in using clandestine or coercive activity to gain unauthorized access to economic and military intelligence.

China has targeted Canada's nuclear industry, aerospace, biotechnology, mining and metallurgy, environmental and the oil and gas sectors.

Beijing's China Defence Science and Technology Information Centre is the key collector of Canadian and foreign technology and is part of the Chinese military's General Equipment Department.

According to a 2003 Pentagon report, China's GED oversees a "complex web of factories, institutes and academies that are subordinate to China's nuclear, aeronautics, electronics, ordnance, shipbuilding and astronautics industries."

It added: "Each of these institutions has an import/export corporation to facilitate the import of technology and knowledge."

Wenxng Zuo of the Chinese embassy on Ottawa strenuously denied yesterday that China has engaged in espionage in Canada to gain secrets for economic and military use.

"No, it's not true," she said.

The revelation of Chinese spying comes as Prime Minister Paul Martin is about to embark on a 10-day trip to Asia that includes stops in Beijing and Hong Kong. International Trade Minister Jim Peterson will lead a trade mission to China at the same time.

Mr. Martin, whose family's shipping company has had ships built at low-wage Chinese shipyards, is under pressure from the opposition and some Liberal backbench MPs to reject China's takeover of Noranda, one of Canada's biggest and best-known mining firms.

Noranda is in acquisition talks with the metals producer China Minmetals Corp, an enterprise controlled by the Chinese government, which wants to pay $6.7 billion for 100 per cent of the mining giant.

Canada is not the only country that has deep concerns about Chinese intelligence operations. The United States has also accused China of carrying out economic espionage.

The FBI claims China uses its nationals, who are sent to North America to study advanced technology, to infiltrate U.S. companies to gain access to sensitive information. They then return to China and set up their own companies or provide the information to the military.

A U.S. congressional committee concluded in 1999 that China obtained critical information about an array of U.S. warheads, including its modern strategic thermonuclear weapons program, through theft from U.S. nuclear weapons labs as well as meticulous scanning of publicly available information.

Paul Moore, a former FBI intelligence analyst who specialized in Beijing espionage activities, told the Washington Times that Chinese intelligence services do not usually pay money for high-technology secrets and expect people friendly to the Communist government, many of whom are ethnic Chinese, to provide it free.

According to a Chinese spying manual, obtained by the Washington Times in 2000, more than 80 per cent of all Chinese espionage focuses on open-source material obtained from government and private-sector information. The remaining 20 per cent is gathered through illicit means from scientists at meetings, through documents supplied by agents or through electronic eavesdropping, bribes or computer hacking.

The manual, titled Sources and Methods of Obtaining National Defence Science and Technology Intelligence, said Beijing set up a database of "famous scientists" overseas, and describes how "special methods" are used to obtain classified information through "satellite surveillance, electronic bugging, special agent activities (buying or stealing), etc."

"Robert Fife is parliamentary bureau chief" U R bulshit!!!
 
不知道大家有没有注意过,ottawa citizen 一贯找一批“中国问题专家”发表对中国非常负面的文章-台湾文化代表处的工作成绩不错啊!
我早就抵制这份报纸了。曾经订过2年的,所见到的有关中国的报道没有一片不是负面的。也曾写过信给他们的主编,告诉他们渥太华有多少中国人,这么做是多么的不智慧,无奈杯水车薪啊。
 
渥京市民报是缔属于NATIONAL POST右翼集团的报纸,发表这种典型的冷战思维观点
却又没有任何证据的指控是不足为奇的。

但这种冷战思维的结果真正受损的是加国的利益。比如,这文中毫无根据地说:中
国的间谍活动使加国的国家安全受损。我不知道,这文中所指的加拿大的“国家安
全”是什么?

中国与加国在国际上有地缘政治的冲突吗?没有。中国与加国在国际上有重大经济
利益的冲突吗?也没有。中国与加国在国际上有潜在的军事冲突吗?更没有。

中国与加国在地理位置上相差十万八千里,无论政治,经济,军事上都没有利益或
利害冲突。所有的只是互利友好的合作关系。有些人就是不甘心看到中加两国的美
好合作前景,一定要制造出一个加拿大的假想敌,而真正受害的就是加拿大的国民
了。
 
This is a pretty ugly article. It is an open secret
that countries spy each other. They simply do not say
it openly. There are certainly lots of Canadian spies
in China or USA too. The purpose of this article
wants to tell the normal Canadian readers that
Chinese here can be spies. What a stupid and weird
writer!
 
太过分了,这帮子阴险的西方政客跟麾下的写手们!根本是无端污蔑跟中伤!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!可恨!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!发誓永不买不订这种垃圾
 
我们可以做什么表示我们的抗议和抵制, 至少可以让他们知道。比如,集体抗议该报部负责人的文章,对所有在加拿大的中国人的负面影响,呼吁中国人抵制这份报纸。毕竟个人的力量非常有限,必须是有一定规模的抗议才可以,至少让他们听到我们不同的声音,所谓民主,其中包括言论自由,也包括我们,但是前提是不能对他人造成伤害。
在马丁访华前夕,这样的文章是什么居心。其实西方发达国家对中国一直是藐视又害怕。
梦里不只身是客的错觉是可怕的。
 
等中华帝国统一地球后,全部日本狗和台湾反动狗诛十族。
 
Robert对还是不对暂且不论。你们认为他的文章是污蔑,不知有何根据呢?如果没有任何根据就说别人在诬蔑...嘿嘿...

我并不完全同意Robert的文章,但是更不能同意诸位的毫无根据指摘。在下不才,倒是有一篇驳斥社论的文章在Ottawa Citizen上发表过。如果你们有充分的论据说明他是错的,就拿出来分享一下吧,我可以帮大家写文章给他们。
 
Did you see any evidences in this article? Have they
got any Chinese spies? They got two Russian spies before. Did this stupid guy write an article about it?

美国加拿大的右翼反动势力不愿意看到中国的崛起.

即使不和中国合作,也挽救不了他们岌岌可危的经济和社会问题.

纯粹的冷战思维,过时的家伙了.成不了气候.

要知道,顺应潮流才能发展,螳臂挡车根本就是无济于事.

美加聪明的政治家都已经能看到这一点,只有愚昧无知,蠢不可及的过时政客才发此陈腔滥调.

根本不足挂齿.

等哪天中兴华为来买了那个倒霉的NORTEL,才是好好煽这些自负的蠢货一记响亮的耳光!这样的日子应该不会太遥远了.
