In CBC’s recent reports accusing an Epoch Times special edition of racism for reporting on communist China’s coverup of the virus outbreak, the public broadcaster failed to grasp what’s important for readers to know and instead fell into the regime’s trap of playing the racism card, say two leaders from the Chinese and Hong Kong support communities in Canada.

“In the face of what could be said to be the biggest disaster in a century, Canada’s public media is not devoting more resources to investigating the origin of the disaster and the truth about the virus, but is instead using resources to attack a private media that’s tracking down the truth,” said Toronto-based author and democracy activist Sheng Xue.
