Motivated by greed, punished by communism:
China hold more Canadian citizens in prison than any other foreign country outside the United States, records show. The Department of Foreign Affairs invoked the Privacy Act in declining to discuss individual cases: “It shouldn’t take a crisis for people to get basic information.”
The government simply does not want one to know.

Cabinet should take steps to disqualify from public pension investments any unethical Chinese companies, a Commons committee recommended yesterday. The Canada Pension Plan, the nation’s largest, has held shares in Chinese coal mines, propaganda film studios and a solar power company linked to slave labour: ‘There are no measures which prevent funds from investing in companies complicit in human rights violations.’

Steven Guilbeault and the angry little voice in his, when not growling about the evils of modern civilisation, is sticking taxpayers with a bill to see his mentors:
Canada spent $140,000 to send federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault and his entourage to a two-day Chinese government international policy convention in Beijing this past August.
He used dirty jet fuel to do it!

Canada would gladly help the Chinese hunt down human rights activists:
The move, which adds to a list of eight overseas activists deemed fugitives by authorities in July, triggered criticism from governments in the U.S. and U.K.
The five are Simon Cheng, Frances Hui, Joey Siu, Johnny Fok and Tony Choi, who are now based in various countries including the United States and Britain.
