Conservatives press PM Trudeau on alleged Chinese role in hack of Canadian data cdnpolI

In a letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, two Conservative MPs say it is extremely worrisome that members of the Chinese People's Liberation Army stand accused of the high-profile 2017 hack of Equifax.The U.S. Department of Justice announced Monday that a federal grand jury had returned an indictment charging four members of the PLA with hacking into the credit-reporting agency's computer systems and stealing data and trade secrets.

The breach also involved the information of about 19,000 Canadians, including names, addresses, social-insurance numbers and credit-card numbers as well as usernames, passwords and security-question data. "If this charge is proven in court, it would mean that the PLA conducted a deliberate, state-sponsored, cyberattack against Canadians, in order to steal their personal information," the letter says.

The MPs are asking whether Canada has investigated the alleged PLA connection to the cyberattack and if it will charge Chinese members in connection with the incident.Federal advisers have told Trudeau that Canada will work with allies to strike back at foreign cyberattackers and "impose costs" that make them understand the price of their deeds.

If the Chinese had a row in this it would be devastating to their case for the huawei5gmobilewifi network. Maybe we should listen to the military?

and were they given the same non-answer, pre-written response, as per usual, with a lot of ahs and ums peppered throughout?

Truedope probably started crying..

I find it funny China hacks, US and Canada, and both Democrats and Liberals have strong ties to China's leader.. I mean look at Trudeau and Rogers helping China import plane loads of the virus in Canada.

Who took the dirtycommiemoney ? hmm 🤔

This should start racism again

Anyone else sick of China?
