LinkSoul60 Posted March 27 Report Posted March 27 13 hours ago, Goddess said: EDIT: I added the above info because I suspect the Liberal Party is going to reverse their stand on the Uyghurs and forced labour in China in order to bring in Chinese vehicles made with this forced labour and of course, the cheerleaders will go along with it and they'll start saying there is no forced labour in China. You go from a pïssing match between the two to the liberals reversing the China agreement of EV's being sold here.... Not going to happen. Would be a real bad decision on our part and a huge kick in the shorts for Prairie canola farmers. Quote
LinkSoul60 Posted March 27 Report Posted March 27 11 hours ago, Goddess said: So, apparently our deal with China gives Canadians visa free travel to China. When I went, I had to send my passport to the Chinese embassy in Vancouver and I think it was about $250. 3 weeks there and it was one of my favourite trips from my travelling years - I climbed the Great Wall, saw the terra-cotta warriors, Beijing, Shanghai, West Lake, the Forbidden City, went to a Buddhist temple, rode in rickshaws, got lost and then invited to lunch by a lovely family who spoke no English before they directed me back to my hotel, bought matcha ice cream every time I saw a street cart, ate from street fairs (I ate a scorpion 🤣), rode the MagLev train, saw Sophia Vergara going into the Hilton in Shanghai, took a million pictures of all the English translated signs - so funny...so many great memories. Glad I did it then. Canada is encouraging citizens to go. The US is warning their citizens not to go. Security Alert: Refusal to Give the Government Passwords to Personal Mobile Device Criminalized in Hong Kong - U.S. Consulate General Hong Kong & Macau Hong Kong: On March 23, 2026, the Hong Kong government changed the implementing rules relating to the National Security Law. It is now a criminal offense to refuse to give the Hong Kong police the passwords or decryption assistance to access all personal electronic devices including cellphones and laptops. This legal change applies to everyone, including U.S. citizens, in Hong Kong, arriving or just transiting Hong Kong International Airport. In addition, the Hong Kong government also has more authority to take and keep any personal devices, as evidence, that they claim are linked to national security offenses.

The US isn't warning citizens not to travel there. They have an 'increased caution advisory'. China can check your laptop or phone, so can and so does the US CBP. That's a bit to pull out of your áss... What's your point? Quote
LinkSoul60 Posted March 27 Report Posted March 27 13 hours ago, Goddess said: This was posted by Sam Cooper, last January: WASHINGTON — Canadian Trade Minister Mary Ng (named as one of the MPs "willingly" compromised by China) has found herself at the center of growing concerns from U.S. lawmakers, who are raising alarms about Canada becoming a backdoor for goods produced with forced labor in China’s Xinjiang region, according to a letter from a bipartisan group of U.S. congressional leaders. The letter, signed by Senators Marco Rubio and Jeff Merkley, hints at consequences for Ottawa ahead of a key review of North American trade agreements. It could also renew an uncomfortable spotlight on Minister Ng, a Toronto-area MP for Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party, stemming from her controversial parliamentary vote in 2022 on issues related to Beijing’s human rights abuses against Uyghurs. In the letter reviewed by The Bureau, dated September 18, U.S. lawmakers expressed frustration with Canada’s enforcement mechanisms, which they believe to be allowing goods tied to human rights abuses to flow into North American markets. The lawmakers cite a specific case in which solar panels, blocked by U.S. Customs under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA), were rerouted through Canada before being stopped again by U.S. border officials. The new trade law, passed in 2021, assumes that goods from China’s Xinjiang region are produced using forced labor unless proven otherwise. The legislation reflects heightened concern over China’s treatment of the Uyghur population, which the United States and other international bodies have described as genocide. China’s abuse of Uyghurs has also become a critical issue for Canadian Parliamentarians. Ottawa’s ongoing Foreign Interference Inquiry has heard that Conservative lawmaker Michael Chong was targeted by Chinese intelligence operatives because he sponsored a motion to spotlight Beijing’s genocidal activity in Xinjiang, but Trudeau’s government failed to alert Chong that his family was being targeted. Under the UFLPA, U.S. authorities have identified certain priority sectors, including solar panels, textiles, and agricultural products, that are at high risk of being produced by forced labor. According to a U.S. government source, the case of a shipment of solar panels that was reportedly crudely relabeled and re-shipped through Canada has triggered heightened concern, reflected in the letter to Minister Ng. "For example, we were told by U.S. CBP officials that a shipment of solar panels denied entry into the U.S. was subsequently imported into Canada, followed by an attempt to re-export them into the U.S.," the lawmakers wrote of the case. On September 19, after mailing their letter to Minister Ng, Rubio and Merkley also made public statements. "Forced labor is a horrific practice witnessed worldwide," Rubio stated in a press release,reiterating China’s “grotesque campaign of genocide against Uyghurs.” Prior to the Ng letter, in June 2024, Merkley was asked by CBC if Ottawa was upholding its promise to block products made by forced labor, and bluntly stated: "No, not yet." This is from 2024. Any recent news? Not sure if you're following on X but the US launched investigations into 60 countries to see if they've bought forced labor products from China. The one and only reason is Trump's tariff policy getting shot down so he needs to find any angle now. My guess is that his lackey's will find 60 countries have bought forced labor product... When did you become more sensitive to this... after the recent trade agreement? Quote

I'm not going to engage with you much further. I've watched you now for days and through pages & pages of replies and numerous people's attempts to reason with you, often using your own source link, that social media is not the main cause of unhappiness for Canadian youth. You're extremely unintelligent and your admission yesterday that your main interest in coming here is to tell people off, call them names and insult them so you can blow off steam........I have no interest in you or your opinions. I hope you find a better way to blow off steam, this one is very unhealthy.

Again, why the concern with China now... And if you can't read black and white of the survey, not my issue. Patience with foolish people like you has never been one of my better traits... I've tried my best over the years but have come to the realization that it's not going to work for me. I've also learned that sometimes names are appropriate.... it's like a 'if the shoe fits' kind of thing to better get someone's attention, or just calling a spade a spade. Put your big girl pants on. No need to blow off steam... Golf in a while is a better form of relaxation. Quote
Goddess Posted March 27 Report Posted March 27 (edited) Sorry, what?? "I didn't mean to doubt forced labor in XINJIANG. I meant to doubt forced labor in SHENZHEN." That's genuinely your excuse?

Have you actually ever been in the PMO and seen Rosemary Barton receiving the CBC's marching orders with your own eyes? I mean don't get me wrong, I've advocated no truck nor trade with China due to China's record on human rights for decades now. Along with transparency in the PMO. Ms. McQuaig-Johnston was perfectly correct to answer that I work closely with Human Rights Watch, and they have ‘witnessed’ the situation firsthand… You've heard me mention human observers to act as witnesses in our governance many times and I realize you think I'm just lying and saying this for shits and giggles but what do you really think about it? Do you think Poilievre could ever go for it? Quote I said now watch what you say they'll be calling you a radical, a liberal, oh fanatical criminal

News to me. Every time I bring up investigations by Sam Cooper or his testimony before the US government & Canadian parliament and helping the FBI track down Chinese criminals in Canada, you're totally against it, you mock him viciously and argue that the Canadian government is completely free of Chinese influence. 8 minutes ago, eyeball said: You've heard me mention human observers to act as witnesses in our governance many times Also news to me. You pretty always mock any whistleblower testimony. On every subject. It doesn't seem to me you have any respect whatsoever for eyewitness testimony. 10 minutes ago, eyeball said: Do you think Poilievre could ever go for it? 1. You're not interested in what I think Poilievre would go for or not. 2. You hate Poilievre with a burning rage that borders on insanity, so I think you've already made your mind up what he'll go for or not.

You don't recall me ever saying Trudeau should have been in prison due to whistleblower Jody Wilson-Raybould either do you - it's all news to you. Again, consider yourself corrected. 16 minutes ago, Goddess said: You're not interested in what I think Poilievre would go for or not. As a matter of fact I've always been fascinated with the very odd way conservative right wingers think about things and draw the conclusions they do - you're a case study. 19 minutes ago, Goddess said: You hate Poilievre with a burning rage that borders on insanity, so I think you've already made your mind up what he'll go for or not. I've said on more than a few occasions now that I would have campaigned door to door for him if he'd been sincere about his statements that it was useless to lobby him and that lobbyists should take their cases directly to Canadians.

Just curious, but why is this a sticking point for you - but only with Poilievre? I mean, he's the only one who has said he doesn't agree with lobbying and would force them to make their appeals directly to citizens, which you deem "insincere". But he's the only one who has addressed lobbying. And he can't do anything about it unless he's in power. The rest of them have said nothing about it, they all allow lobbying and have no intention of stopping it. Yet they're all OK in your book. In fact, you support that - and more - from the rest of the politicians. This makes no sense to me. So your claim that if it weren't for this one thing, you'd support him, rings very hollow when you don't have a problem with it in any other politician, who have all said nothing about it.

eyeball Posted March 27 Report Posted March 27 5 minutes ago, Goddess said: Just curious, but why is this a sticking point for you - but only with Poilievre? He's the only politician I've ever heard talk about lobbyists like that, it resonated with my long standing belief that in-camera lobbying is toxic to our governance. 8 minutes ago, Goddess said: I mean, he's the only one who has said he doesn't agree with lobbying and would force them to make their appeals directly to citizens, which you deem "insincere". And then he just kept on meeting with lobbyists as if he'd never said it. You bizarrely argued he had no choice. 11 minutes ago, Goddess said: But he's the only one who has addressed lobbying. And he can't do anything about it unless he's in power. LMAO! He didn't have to keep meeting them. 12 minutes ago, Goddess said: The rest of them have said nothing about it, they all allow lobbying and have no intention of stopping it. Yet they're all OK in your book. In fact, you support that - and more - from the rest of the politicians. No, not one of them are okay in my book. I do not support any of them being lobbied in-camera. You're talking to an entirely fictitious caricature of me that you've invented to argue against. This is what what fascinates me about hard-boiled right-wingers. How they can do this with such a straight face. And now you'll argue I must simply be lying because you just know somehow. 19 minutes ago, Goddess said: This makes no sense to me. So your claim that if it weren't for this one thing, you'd support him, rings very hollow when you don't have a problem with it in any other politician, who have all said nothing about it. Hence the biggest reason I vote strategically, to prevent any politician from having a majority. It's really the only line of defence a voter has in a FPTP system that is completely subservient to politicians and most convenient to lobbyists. I'm not a partisan you see. Can you take your bag off long enough to see that or will your head explode if you do? Things don't make sense to you because you're so determined to hang on to your illusions about me.
