I'd speculate that China may be considerably faster at ordering the shut down of hydro and telecommunications facilities to protect them from damage. A good analogy is during the 9-11 attack the FAA managed to fairly quickly alert/inform carriers and air traffic of an immediate shutdown of US airspace. I doubt US/Canadian regulators of power and telecom providers would be nearly as quick/effective.
