That small centre located in Beijing and elsewhere, which gathers various people's personal data, must have access to data centres in Canada, where that data is processed and where decisions are made. It does not take a lot of imagination to assume that the Chinese agency, which comes under China's ministry of public security, will take advantage of that connection to data centres in Canada and use the opportunity to infiltrate the federal network in general.
I will give you an example. A few years ago, The New York Times published a report on a small family shop in Texas, which had a computer a certain country used to get into the data centres of half a dozen departments in Washington. The entry point does not need to be recognized as relating to national security or be in the country. An entry point is an entry point. That does not mean China will do it. However, what worried me when I heard your comments is that the possibility is there and, in my opinion, we should not have allowed that possibility to occur.
