Canadian voters are likely to face foreign cyber interference in the next election, say cyber spies
Canadian voters are likely to face some form of foreign cyber interference ahead and during the next federal election, warns Canada's cyber spy agency, including false information about voter fraud.
However, that meddling is unlikely to match the scale and influence as seen in the U.S., says the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) in a new threat assessment report published Friday.
"We assess that an increasing number of threat actors have the cyber tools, the organizational capacity, and a sufficiently advanced understanding of Canada's political landscape to direct cyber activity against future Canadian federal elections, should they have the strategic intent," reads the report.

In Cantonese we say "面係人地俾,架係自己丟" (roughly translated as: people give you face but we can't help you if you decide to throw it away", my translation is bit crappy - if you have better suggestions you can comment!)

Anyways, #ErickTsang is the worst type of a**-kisser 🙄🙄 Apparently, similar threatening letters have been issued to papers like #FinancialTimes, #Economist and #NewYorkTimes too.
