A Taiwanese comedian was allegedly targeted in a staged car attack. Since when did telling jokes become a target of transnational repression?
Five people were arrested in Taiwan after they were hired to attack a stand-up comedian with a car on the street. The comedian had made jokes about Xi Jinping months earlier. We must stand together to condemn the CCP’s transnational repression worldwide.

🕵️ Cutting off the money flow is key to fighting transnational crime! This week, Taiwan’s Ministry of Justice Investigation Bureau (#MJIB) sent a representative to #Ottawa at the invitation of @TaiwanInCanada.

Citizens living in free and democratic societies continue to face China’s transnational repression. Such intimidation and coercion instill fear and undermine the very freedoms democracy protects. We must not turn a blind eye.
No one should face violence for speaking their mind. #Taiwan🇹🇼 strongly condemns #China's transnational repression following the indictment of 5 suspects in an alleged plot to harm a Taiwanese performer critical of the #CCP. Democracies must stand together against intimidation.

The reported attack on a #Taiwanese comedian, with links to #China, raises serious concerns about Transnational Repression. Violence or intimidation aimed at silencing political criticism must be condemned. Such acts have no place in a democratic society.

Stronger together against hybrid threats. These high-level discussions deepen #Taiwan–#Canada cooperation and help our democracies counter disinformation, resist coercion and build resilience. Shared challenges call for a united response. 🇹🇼🇨🇦
Very pleased to welcome #Canada’s eminent former security officials, led by former National Security and Intelligence Adviser Jody Thomas. Discussions focused on fighting back #China’s hybrid warfare. We agree that cooperation on all fronts is the best way forward. 🇹🇼🤝🇨🇦

Maritime intimidation undermines peace & stability in the #IndoPacific. The 16 Chinese vessels detected around #Taiwan on Oct. 18, including coast guard, survey & suspected maritime militia ships reflect #China’s continued maritime expansion.
On October 18, we detected 16 Chinese vessels around #Taiwan, including 6 #CCG, 6 survey vessels, & 4 believed to be #maritimemilitia vessels. These activities represented a clear pattern of expansionism & provocation across the wider #IndoPacific.

Innovation looks even better from space! #Taiwan’s Chi Po-lin satellite is bringing #Yushan & #Taipei101 into focus from orbit. These remarkable images showcase Taiwan’s growing space capabilities while supporting environmental protection & disaster resilience.
🛰️ Chi Po-lin, launched into orbit last November & the first of a new generation of #Taiwan-developed🇹🇼 satellites, is capturing stunning photos from space, from #Yushan's summit to #Taipei101. Its imagery will help monitor the environment & support disaster response. (📸TASA)

#Canada’s steadfast support for #Taiwan extends beyond diplomacy. President @ChingteLai welcomed a delegation of Canadian MPs led by Hon. Judy Sgro, highlighting maritime security, Indo-Pacific stability & opportunities for cooperation in semiconductors, #AI & critical minerals.
A very warm welcome to the Canadian parliamentary delegation led by MP Judy Sgro. With expanding collaboration across many areas including trade, technology, supply chains & maritime security, we look forward to an even stronger #Taiwan-#Canada partnership ahead.

Merci beaucoup! @yfblanchet
J’étais ce mardi aux célébrations de la Fête nationale de Taïwan à Ottawa, nation amie et rempart du monde libre en Asie. Pour que l’alliance des puissances intermédiaires proposée par le premier ministre ait un sens, au-delà des mots et des agendas dissimulés, il faut augmenter le commerce avec ces pays (Ottawa refuse de signer un accord qu’il a lui-même négocié avec Taïwan), armer la défense de Taïwan et de l’Ukraine malgré la trahison de Donald Trump, cesser de pactiser qui avec la Chine, qui avec la Russie, et tenter de raisonner les USA. Merci pour l’accueil 🙏 ⚜️ 🇹🇼 @TaiwanNewsEN @TaiwanInCanada @Alduceppe @ChristineNorm @patbonin @seblemire @XBarsalouDuval
