Hong Kong police have detained relatives of former Canadian Conservative candidate Joe Tay, who was the target of Chinese electoral interference operations during Canada’s recent federal elections.

This action, reported by The Bureau, marks an escalation in the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) strategy to intimidate dissidents beyond its borders.

Those detained include Tay’s cousin and his wife, who were interrogated in Hong Kong in what appears to be an attempt to pressure the Canadian government under Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney.

The arrests occurred just days after Carney’s May 6 meeting with the White House, suggesting a CCP maneuver to test Ottawa’s resolve in the face of foreign influence.

CPC candidate Joe Tay was told by the RCMP to stop campaigning because of Chinese govt threats. He lost.

Now the Chinese govt have snatched his cousin and wife in Hong Kong.

The RCMP reportedly told Joe Tay, the CCP-targeted candidate, to stop campaigning due to threats from the Chinese government. He lost. Now the Chinese regime has kidnapped his cousin and his cousin’s wife in Hong Kong. See how this works?

Tay, who faced a coordinated disinformation campaign on WeChat and threats that forced him to suspend in-person events, was charged in Hong Kong in December 2024 with “incitement to secession” and “collusion with foreign forces” for operating the HongKonger Station platform.

On April 30, Hong Kong police arrested the father and brother of pro-democracy activist Anna Kwok, accusing them of managing her finances under the draconian National Security Law.
Human Rights Watch and 87 organizations condemned the arrests, calling them an alarming precedent.

This case, along with the detention of relatives of activists like Frances Hui, highlights a Chinese Communist Party strategy to punish dissidents abroad through family intimidation — a pattern Canadian Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly condemned as a violation of international norms.

The arrest of Joe Tay’s family members in Hong Kong is not just a personal attack — it is a warning from the Chinese Communist Party to democracies that dare to challenge its influence.

As Ottawa remains silent and Prime Minister Carney faces scrutiny over his handling of foreign interference, the world is watching to see whether Canada will yield to Beijing’s coercion or stand firmly in defense of its sovereignty.

These tactics of transnational repression, documented by The Bureau and condemned by human rights observers, underline an undeniable truth: the complicit silence of Western leaders only emboldens a regime that respects neither borders nor freedoms.

Tay’s struggle is the struggle of all who resist tyranny, and his family — now hostages of an oppressive system — deserves a forceful response that honors democratic principles.
