So we are further from America, closer to China, kind of at war with Russia, but still brothers with Europe. This is a weird time line.
What was their method of growing relations with Canada then prior to this plan of being on mutual respect?
and here it is. 1 year ago, every Canadian was absolutely pro distancing ourselves from China.
Fast forward to now and we’re openly coming back to China because of Trump.
This man is incredible, for China and Russia ….
China see opportunity and grabbing it while it can.
I would like Canada to forge our own independent relationship with China and ignore whatever BS the US demands of us.
I’m tired of the USA using Canada as a shield for their provocations to China. They can do it themselves from now on.
It’s because China is pragmatic. They aren’t the best partners but at this point, especially with how all over the place the US has been, this is a moment they HAD to seize. Bro ended up making China more powerful by indirectly weakening himself. Is the Art dealing yet?
Never thought I would see the day where China is taking the diplomatic step to improve relations and trades.
Still don’t trust them though.
Thank you Trump for alienating all our allies and kissing up to dictators. May bad karma fall on you the rest of your miserable low life.
Does this mean we get to put Canadian police stations in China?
China to Canada: “You look lonely, I can fix that.”
Trump handing the world power to China was the most obvious thing.
Tonight i’m ordering Chinese food to show my support
So Canada gets the cheap EV’s and we lose our job? Fuck trump.
At this stage, it’s the devil we know. China is predictable. USA is a loose horse in the hospital taking a poop everywhere
As a Canadian, I would love better relations with China. Like it or not, China is set to become a global power, better to have them on our side than not, especially with the US becoming an unreliable partner.
I wonder if China would be open to cut ties with Russia if given access to more resources from Canada.
IMO the Chinese have been playing the ‘global’ game with more civility than either Russia or the US. I don’t doubt that they are expansionist in nature, but at least they’re doing it without a war somewhere.
They seem to have come to the realization that the best way to gain more power and not make enemies is through soft power gains, like the rest of the world. Nix the US and Russia.
They just seem like the lesser (least?) ‘evil’ power in which to do business with at the current time, as sad as it all is.
That would be great!
They can start by sharing their knowledge on their and other foreign states interference in our government.
That would be a concrete action that would show good faith.
Canada cannot depend on the US. It needs to be more like Singapore, where it navigates both China and US to gain the most benefit for itself instead of just bending the knee to the US.
I really hope the NAFTA renegotiations ends up making NAFTA more in Canadas favour. We can trade more with China if the US wants us to so badly.
It’s difficult to respect a country that doesn’t respect human rights. Take America for example.
Turns out Trump is a Chinese asset too
Both Canada and China need to end their tariffs on each other.
Well, the only reason we kept their ev’s out was to protect the American car market. With the Psycho in Queef destroying that for us, I see many reasons to open our markets. I mean, we won’t even have to massively subsidize them for starters. Trey are road and pedestrian safe, and cost half as much…
> on basis of mutual respect
Does this mean they’ll let canadian businesspeople buy land and operate companies fully independently (i.e., no forced co-venture with a chinese partner) in China?
Because they can operate 100% chinese-owned businesses in Canada, on top of buying (lots of) land there.
Conversely (unless things changed very recently), no foreigner can buy land in China
nor can operate a fully owned subsidiary in China (they *must* partner with a chinese company and not own more than 49% of the co-venture).
Whilst I understand it was necessary when China went from “pure” communist regime to whatever it is right now, it is no longer a developing and vulnerable economy. They have their own business tycoons, their own mega-corporations, etc. They can now lift the restrictions.
Canada and China used to be rather friendly. Canada was the first western country to recognize Communist China. Trudeau Senior visited Chairman Mao and the Chinese president (Mao’s replacement) spoke in Canadian Parliament. The Chinese have a long memory. I hope they still remember Norman Bethune. He was a Canadian communist doctor who helped the commies in China during their civil war in the 30s. Chairman Mao himself gave his eulogy when he died. China used to name hospitals after him.
We’ll do business with China. Their money is as good as the US. Don’t worry, we still don’t trust them tho!
Bruh… Can we get some affordable EVs in Canada please. The average new car sold price was like 67k cad in 2023. It’s probably a lot higher now. I just want a 400km range small hatchback like the BYD seagull for 25k cad.
Mutual respect lmao ask us Australians how that’s going
