In a rare testimony before US lawmakers, a Canadian politician has urged for co-operation between the two countries to combat foreign interference by Beijing.
Michael Chong was himself allegedly targeted by China for criticising its human rights record.
He was invited to speak about his experience before a US Congressional committee tasked with monitoring China.
He said Beijing's actions pose a "serious, national threat" to Canada.
"My experience is but one case of Beijing's interference in Canada," Mr Chong told the bipartisan committee on Monday. "Many, many other cases go unnoticed and unreported, and the victims suffer in silence."
Earlier this year, Canada accused China of targeting Mr Chong with a misinformation campaign on the popular messaging app WeChat.
Mr Chong said he also learned through Canadian intelligence that Beijing had been gathering information on him, as well as his relatives in Hong Kong, for the last three years. In 2021, Mr Chong put forward a motion in parliament that declared China's treatment of its Uyghur minority population a genocide.
China has repeatedly denied any attempts to intimidate Mr Chong or interfere in Canadian affairs.
In his testimony, the Conservative politician detailed other ways in which he said China has been observed interfering in his country.
This includes recruiting Chinese international students at Canadian universities, he said, who are then coerced by Beijing to spy on other students and activists seen as unfriendly to the Communist Party of China (CPC).
