So this guy, as far as I can tell, has got theater kid energy and is like used to go to film school and it's just like kind of an evil nerd, you know. He was responding to Ceases, which is the Canadian version of the CIA. Our intelligence service has not unlike the CIA been trying to rehabilitate their image, right? They're like, we're not your grandpa's intelligence agency. We're woke and we want to engage on social media with our fans, the Canadian public who love us and think we're cool.
So they posted this insane thing about what they called elicitation, which is, was a threat. No, it's not someone trying to buy sex with me. It's not someone trying to buy sex with me. It's just someone flattering you into being an unwitting asset for a foreign power. Yeah. And if you go to their website and follow the link and read their guide to Canadian travelers, you know, like, okay, you might think you're just a guy from, you're just a guy from Comox, British Columbia.
What would a foreign government want from you? But you'd be wrong according to Ceases. Is there such a problem with like Canadian adults being groomable? That way, you know, this is a problem? They're like Canadians traveling abroad. If anyone notices you, flatters you or shows an interest in you, they're grooming you for intelligence. We're like, I've been like, the standard is just being not noticed by anyone, not complimented.
This can be so violently observing to Canadians that it can like, it can put their whole identity into crisis and they become valuable nodes, inference, influence networks. Yeah, nodes of entry. So these nefarious foreign governments can melt down our totally functional democracy where we have like a grocery monopoly and shit. It's awesome. But yeah, so basically the Ceases article goes so far as to recommend like not giving all your information on Visa applications. It's insane. It's insane.
It's like, if you're a legal, basically yes. Be careful what you put on your Visa application. So anyway, obviously people are dunking on this tweet because it's insane and a elicitation also sounds like something Ricky from trailer park boys would say. It's just fucking bullshit. Why don't you start doing your job instead of making false accriminations all the time? But Adam Givo weighs in and he originally posted, he was like, funny story.
I organized a sting operation with Ukrainian intelligence when a suspicious Chinese man caught my attention and I immediately seized on it and was like, I quote tweeted it and I was like, what do you mean by this? I don't believe this is bullshit. And then many hours went by and he replied with like a 10 paragraph story about how he met a Chinese man in a mall got a bad feeling from him. Essentially describes him as greasy. He was very inscrutable. Very inscrutable. Yeah. His vibe. Here it is.
His vibe was sketchy slash greasy. Oh. Okay. No, he met in the trailer park boys. Yeah. Not like he doesn't mean, you know, he doesn't mean that he was like literally dripping with Chinese oils and greases, but he was like, yes, sketchy. And he wears a wire. He wears a wire to meet this guy. I mean, like in this guy's story, he says, yeah, I, we agreed to do a small sting operation. I wanted to do my part to keep my boyfriend city Odessa safe around this time.
We were worried about the risks of potential Russian winter offensive. In February, I met the Chinese man and his wife at a restaurant while wearing a wire. I arrived early and grabbed the table on the ground floor by the window. The SBU officers watched us from a car park outside the shed tinted windows. And then he goes on to just say, I found his wife suspicious. I like it. This is really like, you know, I have tried to, you know, be fair to Ukraine ever since I saw that video.
The asshole got his dancing with the hot seeds. I thought that was delightful. I thought it showed that they're figuring things out over there. But if this is, if the SBU really did like just grab this random idiot from a newspaper, it was like, hey, do you want to be a double agent? That's, that really puts you in not a real country territory. I hate to say, you know, yeah, like no one looks good in this story, whether it's true or not. No one looks good. I hope it isn't true.
I hope it isn't true. I hope it isn't true. You know, exactly. You know, when the story ends with him getting a plate of mysterious brownies brought to him. So he's on dinner with the Chinese, with Chinese man and his wife. He says, I moderated my drinking and watch what I ate. Eventually, the Chinese man left and returned with a plate of brownies, which he's very suspicious, which he's very suspicious. And she said he had gotten from the restaurant for me.
But this was odd as you could just order these brownies from the waiter. So, yeah, yeah, this is how James bought the double agent. Yeah, something's of mis. So that he says he placed the brownies in the middle of the table and then he and his wife insisted at several points throughout the rest of the dinner that I eat them. I declined that I said I was full and I encouraged them to eat the brownies, but they refused.
After sometime, the wife took the tiniest crumb from a brownie ate it and tried again to get me to eat the rest of the dessert. I declined again. It's to be fair. It's to be fair. If that happened to me, I would think that this is suspicious. I'm so stupid. What?
