A majority of Canadians are concerned about the Chinese communist regime’s interference in Canadian society, a new poll finds, and seven in ten view it as a major threat to the country’s democracy.

Conducted by Nanos Research, the poll found that over nine in ten Canadians say they are concerned (59 percent) or somewhat concerned (32 percent) about Beijing’s interference on Canadian soil.
