To borrow from another poster.......

Exactly.

It’s hilarious to see the machinations about what a great job O’Toole did, and how evil the liberals are.

People voted them in.....again. That is the democratic process we have in Canada. To ascribe "evil" to the process or the results is probably the most evil act of all.

I agree. The Liberals are so bitter that they accepted the help of Chinese commies, and still lost the election. Talk about a campaign that failed to resonate with voters. Resign Justin! We see you and your corrupt pals!!

But does that criticism have to take the form of severing all contact ? I'm saying that yes, we should be aware of their controversial policies, and take steps to shelter Canadian businesses and citizens from any possible effects those policies might have for them, but make an enemy out of them ? Not a good idea in my mind. It is expected that China will surpass the US as the world's largest economic power before the end of this decade, we have to be a little smarter than simply calling them names and cutting off their wheat shipments.

After three successive election losses you would think there might be some effort put into self-reflection. Conservatives are such slow learners.

Canada has only 2 winning political parties... its either Conservatives or Liberals, the closest a third party has come is opposition.
Main reason for that is nobody could stand the Liberal leader, even their own liberal supporters.

impo the conservative party needs to completely rethink how they elect a leader, last 2 have been complete duds.
I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.

There are zero critiques of what the CCP is doing to the Uyghur Muslim population in China. If Western governments (including our own) stood up to them, perhaps we could influence them to free the Uyghurs from their "re-education" camps (and stop the forced abortions and forced sterilizations).
Don't take my silence to mean I've agreed with you; I easily could've just lost interest in explaining how wrong you are.

Cutting off all ties with china? Cut as much as possible.
Chinese money just as good? Then so is the cash that your neighbourhood fentanyl dealer has in his pocket. Would you do business with him?

How about giving your head a real big shake.
How about reading up a bit on what that despicable country has been up to in regards to abuses of human rights.
And you don't give a damn about what they just did to two of our citizens, and some of you are prepared to simply move on.

My plan?
I'll carry on as I always have. Buying as few goods as possible that say Made in China.

The rest of you, just keep your membership up to date in the United Front. Xi will keep you on his Christmas list. He loves Canadians like you.

What gives us the right to tell China how to run their country ? I don't care for the way Wal-Mart does business, but I shop there now and then if it's something I can't find anywhere else. Canada does close to $100 Billion in trade per year with China, what do you say to the people in Canada whose jobs depend on that money ? While I respect your right to refuse to buy Chinese goods you do not have the right to make that decision for others.
Reading comprehension is useful prior to responding to comments.

Now please point out to us where I'm telling China how to run their country?

And please tell us where I'm making decisions for others.

Or are you mistakingly responding to the wrong comment?

As for China, I have no use for that despicable country.
But if your love for China is offended by my comments, too bad. For the time being I'm still entitled to my opinion in this country.

Where is the proof that China supported the Liberals? I don't see anything? Not that I am not pleased if they did. They must know a good government and policies when they see one I guess.

No, they know a cooperative government when they see one.

Not necessarily only that, I suspect they see gullible government leader.
