Conservative MP Michael Chong testified on Tuesday before the standing committee on procedure and house affairs, which is investigating the intimidation campaign allegedly orchestrated by a Chinese diplomat who has since been expelled from Canada.

Canada expelled Chinese diplomat Zhao Wei over a newly-surfaced 2021 report by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), which alleged that the Toronto consular officer sought to intimidate Chong and his relatives in Hong Kong because of the MP's criticism of China's human rights record.

Chong said no one ever informed him that the Chinese diplomat was collecting information on his family, and in fact, he actually found out through a story in the Globe and Mail.

Also, he added he doesn't know what the threats were specifically, just that they were being made.

Other MPs were also allegedly targeted in the same manner over their support of a February 2021 vote condemning China's treatment of its Uyghur minority. The names of those MPs have not been disclosed.
