Sommario/riassunto

The Mosaic Effect explores the intricate strategies employed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to exert influence and control in Canada and beyond. Through detailed analysis, the book reveals ties between the CCP, Hong Kong's Triads, and powerful business figures,



highlighting a hybrid warfare approach that includes tactics such as economic manipulation, media control, and espionage. The authors, Scott McGregor and Ina Mitchell, draw upon their backgrounds in law enforcement and intelligence to present a comprehensive investigation into the CCP's operations. The book serves as a wake-up call, urging readers to recognize and counteract the pervasive reach of the CCP's United Front strategy. Aimed at policymakers, security experts, and those concerned with international relations, this work provides an urgent examination of geopolitical dynamics and challenges to democratic freedoms.
