In February 2023, while at Global, Sam Cooper released a bombshell report suggesting that the PRC had supported Han Dong’s Liberal nomination. The PMO and the Prime Minister showed indifference. Yet, it was revealed during the Foreign Interference Commission that Director David Vigneault was asked to modify his intelligence assessment twice. The Hogue Commission has established through the documents shared with them and testimony that the PRC had indeed been involved with MP Han Dong’s nomination but he may not have been aware of it.

Sam Cooper and the Globe and Mail broke these stories from confidential sources, but to fully understand the context, you must read his entire book.

You'll discover all of this and more when you purchase the updated third edition of "Wilful Blindness." This edition brings you up to date on the CCP’s transnational repression and infiltration operations into Canada’s political apparatus, and Cooper's seminal reporting that led to the Election Interference Commission chaired by Justice Hogue. The preliminary report is due in late June, offering new insights into the CCP’s hybrid warfare tactics in Canada. Additionally, it covers the Iranian links to money laundering and the financing of Middle Eastern terrorist proxies, including Hamas and Hezbollah.

New Book Dives Into Canadian Real Estate, Gangs, Laundering, And Corrupt Officials

The most important book on Canadian real estate you’ll read this year isn’t about demographics or interest rates. It’s investigative journalist Sam Cooper’s new book, Wilful Blindness: How A Network of Narcos, Tycoons and CCP Agents Infiltrated The West. The controversial best-seller outlines how business tycoons and China set out for a power grab 40 years ago. The quiet cities of Toronto and Vancouver played critical strategic roles. What followed was a flood of narcos, corrupt officials, and hockey bags of money.

The issue has occurred in Vancouver for decades, but it only recently became visible. This transition from a place with a discreet underbelly to a Gangster’s Paradise happened after the discovery of Canada’s weakness ― real estate.

It turns out tax-free capital gains were more than ideal for money laundering. Since Canada depended on real estate, most officials ignored warning signs. In fact, they actually cheered on the laundering. They even gave local buyers access to greater credit to compete. Over in rural Ontario, buyers now play bidding wars just like they do in big city Vancouver. Adorable, right? There are hundreds, if not thousands, of takeaways from this book ― for all parts of the economy.

Let’s talk about three key takeaways relating specifically to real estate markets. Opportunity Or a well organized Plan? Cooper’s book is primarily about the global ambitions of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

“This book reads like a thriller and is stranger than fiction. Gripping, racy and exciting, it isn't easy to put down. A tale of gambling, narcotics, tycoons, criminal gangs and Communists. And the shocking part is that it’s not a novel, it is all true.

Based on meticulous research, this aptly titled book exposes the naivety and corruption at the heart of Western democracies, which for too long have kowtowed to the Chinese Communist Party regime and their crime syndicates and, as a result, put the free world in jeopardy.

"This book is a wake-up call and a must-read.”
