Canada’s Response to a More Aggressive China? Silence

As Trump is mysteriously quiet about Russia, Trudeau is silent on China. It is very curious why the two of North America’s leaders are so silent. Is there no leader with the balls to speak about the blatantness of China? China’s increasingly aggressive behaviour includes:

  • Forced technological transfer to Chinese companies, if you wish to sell product in China
  • Claiming the South China Sea and all islands as Chinese, with historical reasoning.
  • blatant human rights abuses against not only their own citizens, but also those of Taiwan and Hong Kong
  • Tolerance of an increasingly nuclear North Korea

At least the US has representatives, though not Trump, that somewhat says censures China’s aggressive attitude to internationalization.
