Canada has some crazy issues with Chinese influence. CSIS (sort of like the FBI/CIA of Canada) has implied that China has taken over some municipal governments and even cabinet positions in BC. There's the whole money laundering scandal, which a component that isn't touched upon much is that it's China laundering the money and using it to fund their activities in Canada. There's a very deep conspiracy there. And I'm sure similar things are happening in the US and other countries.

One of the things China does is try to take over housing, because they view control of housing as being a strong influence over local politicians.
