Somewhere out there is a good copy-pasta dismissal of these boring reflexive "But look! A Western country did something similar that one time so that makes it okay for us to do!" responses.
- FpUser 4y agoTo mind reader: >"that one time so that makes it okay for us to do" I am not "us". I live in Canada. And I am way more concerned with what we and the West in general are doing in human rights department then what China does. When I see the case dismissed and prosecutor loosing the job I'll be celebrating. I'll live it to China to sort their own shit.
- lazyeye 4y agoYes but China appears to be sorting our shit too. And very effectively.
- FpUser 4y agoYou are going to blame China for trying? Last time I checked we have Government with CSIS and other agencies. They should get of their asses and do their job. Also restoring ability to make staff here rather than getting it from China will not hurt but I am afraid that we have pissed this away permanently.
