To the officials, in this amendment, adding after line 20 that the Governor in Council “may” establish a list is giving the cabinet the option to list the name of a foreign principal if there's a concern that this foreign principal is of particular concern.
I believe there was a diplomat from the Chinese embassy who was named persona non grata. His name was shared all over the media. What could be some of the consequences of doing this? If there is a principal who is of concern, is there not some benefit to naming that person and saying that this person is a threat?
