The U.S. State Department recently warned of China&#8217;s capability to launch cyberattacks against oil and gas pipelines and rail systems. Multinational energy companies like Exxon Mobil and Royal Dutch Shell have major operations in Canada, which is home to several large oil pipelines that are crucial for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/small-businesses-are-filing-for-bankruptcy-at-higher-rate-than-peak-of-pandemic\/\" title=\"Small Businesses Are Filing for Bankruptcy at Higher Rate Than Peak of Pandemic\">global crude supplies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Anand spoke at the Shangri-La Dialogue, Asia\u2019s top security meeting, where rising tensions between the United States and China have dominated proceedings. Chinese military officials have accused the U.S. and its allies of using the conference to gang up on Beijing and open divisions in the Asia-Pacific region. Anand warned that China has become an increasingly disruptive global power and that Canada is advising its organizations and companies to take mitigation measures against cyberattacks.<\/p>\n<h3>Other News:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Faith in a key institution has eroded, according to a new poll.<\/li>\n<li>President Trump took shots at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Joe Biden during his State of Iowa visit.<\/li>\n<li>Robert F.
