This video …
… at < youtube.com/watch?v=TqJpJMeV88E&feature=youtu.be > is pure propaganda. It is made by a group that supports Hong Kong independence and is avidly anti-Chinese Communist Party. That doesn’t make what is says either incorrect or anti-Chinese. A far as I can tell it is factually correct … biased, to be sure, but not ‘fake news.’
Many countries, including our closest allies ~ America, Australia and Britain …
… are speaking out against what their governments (and their peoples) see as Chinese responsibility for failing to contain the virus. Britain, for example, appears to be reversing its position on allowing Huawei to participate in its 5G network. Where is Canada?
Canada still, refuses to criticize China for unleashing this pandemic on the world failing to contain this pandemic; Canada sends millions of dollars to China, the world’s second-largest economy, and Canada still refuses to ban Huawei from our 5G networks. I have explained, before, that there is one good reason to tread lightly with China ~ they are holding two Canadians as hostages ~ but there are many better reasons for showing solidarity with America, especially, in containing China.
China’s government needs to be called to account for its actions and inactions, what it has done and what it has failed to do, which allowed this virus to spread from Wuhan, one large city, in one medium-sized province (Hubei) to all of China and then to the world. The video is correct. It is China’s governance that is to blame for this global pandemic.
The Government of Canada needs to join with our allies and stand up to China … if it will not then we need, urgently, a new government, one that is able and willing to face the strategic, social, political and economic challenges that face Canada, and the world, in 2020. If Justin Trudeau will not do the honourable thing and resign and ask for a new election in the fall of 2020, then the Liberal Party caucus should revolt and disavow him and then invite the CPC to join them in a government of national unity.
