Four overseas Chinese police stations reported to be functioning in various locations across Canada have now “ceased” operations, the RCMP says.

The RCMP’s deputy commissioner of federal policing Michael Duheme appeared before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs on March 2, where he was asked by Conservative MP Raquel Dancho about overseas Chinese police stations reported to be functioning in different locations in Canada.
