Not quite the cozy soft-ball dinner meeting the interviewer had with Bernier…of coarse CBC's bloated budget and possible survival could hing on splitting the vote this coming fall.

Canada has been trying to appease China since 1989 when the Chinese government slaughtered 3,000 unarmed protesters in Tiananmen Square. Don't forget about the genocide against and the invasion of Tibet, resulting in the deaths of 1.2 MILLION Tibetans. And how about the Chinese genocide of the Uighars? China is a totalitarian dictatorship, and Huawei is one of their selling points.

We made China great again. Our factories are closing and Walmart is packed with cheap Chinese made goods. You reap what you sow. Trains roll south to Toronto everyday loaded with China shipping containers. We, the West, made the dragon a superpower and now we try to poke it down.
