Expect continued pathetic weakness from our politicians in response to China’s arrogance.

China’s new ambassador to Canada is already threatening Canada, warning our country not to pass legislation similar to a US law that pledged support for Hong Kong protesters:

As reported by the Globe & Mail, ambassador Cong Peiwu said the following:

‘“If anything happens like this we will certainly have very bad damage in our bilateral relationship and that is not in the interest of Canada,” envoy Cong Peiwu told reporters at his first major interview with Canadian media. “We are firmly opposed to any foreign interference.” This week the U.S. Congress passed legislation to back protesters in Hong Kong and threaten China with possible sanctions, which sources told Reuters that President Donald Trump is expected to sign into law in the coming days.”

As Terry Glavin noted on Twitter, the correct response to the ambassador’s rhetoric is to tell him to shut up and make clear that he will face deportation if he doesn’t stop threatening Canadians:

“This guy should be summoned to the PMOffice and instructed to mind his bloody tone or be immediately deported. No other embassy would get away with threats like this. Beijing is a thug regime. We should Magnitsky the lot of them.”

Others noted Canada should be putting Chinese officials on the Magnitsky sanctions list:

“First test for Canada’s new MFA – will he stand up against China’s threat-based bully diplomacy? Chinese officials responsible for violence against Hong Kong demonstrators and ethnic cleansing in Xinjiang could easily be added to Canadian Magnitsky human rights sanctions list.”

Of course, given the Trudeau government’s and the elites pathetic weakness, we can expect that China’s threats and and aggression will be met with just more pandering and grovelling, which will of course increase the likelihood of our nation getting mistreated even more by China and put more Canadian Citizens at risk.
