Canada, For One, Welcomes Its New Chinese Overlords

... and would like to remind them that as a "post-national state" it is more than willing to co-operate in finding others to toil in their underground minerals caves:

Federal agencies recommend Canadians avoid reference to China when discussing the pandemic. Origins of the coronavirus are irrelevant, the Treasury Board wrote in a guide for employees: ‘Don’t blame people from a specific country.’

(Sidebar: yes, about that ...)

Recently the National Research Council (NRC) announced that Canadian researchers will be partnering with the Chinese based CanSino Biologics and in extension the People’s Liberation Army to develop a vaccine for the coronavirus.

President of Concerned Ontario Doctors Dr. Kulvinder Gill spoke out against the deal, saying that partnering with China is “the most counterproductive and dangerous thing [the federal government] could do.” 

“The role of our governments is to build trust through transparency and accountability.  ...

If the Trudeau government wants Canadians to trust and buy into a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, partnering with the Chinese Communist Party’s military is […] the most counterproductive and dangerous thing it could do,” Gill told Thinkpol.

Dear professor, this is the same country that re-elected a Sinophilic blackface-wearing groper that knew he has to remove his colourful socks to count to twenty. Canadians don't revolt, reconsider or adopt moral stances that are contrary to their Netflix viewing. In less than a month, Canadians will still be purchasing cheaply made Chinese goods and be blissfully unaware of Canada's natural resources purchased by that paper dragon all while hiding in their homes.

You'll see:

In what should be a wake-up call for the federal government, the Canadian public’s perception of China appears to be swinging dramatically.

An Angus Reid poll last week found four in five Canadians want Huawei banned from any role in building this country’s 5G network, and just 11 per cent of respondents felt Canada should focus its trade efforts on China – down from 40 per cent in 2015. And 76 per cent said Canada should prioritize human rights and the rule of law over economic opportunity.

If Ottawa has been delaying a decision all these months while it awaits the “right moment” to announce that the future of Canadian telecommunications lies with Huawei, it is now clear that moment will never come.
