“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

Justin Trudeau has never drawn one single line in the sand that he wouldn’t see crossed; if he had he would have just kept backing up to draw another line further back


Things just keep going from bad to worse .... and all our Canadian Prime Minister can do is wring his hands and ask the United Stated to have a school yard fight with the Chinese and take a round out of them for us.

In an earlier post today, with regards to China a being a reception sponsor at the Union of BC Municipalities, I noted the comments of Port Coquitlam Mayor Brad West who commented: 

To state it plainly: The Government of China is engaged in a number of actions that are hostile to our country's interests and the interests of every Canadian, and are completely at odds with our values, the rule of law and the very principles that we were all elected to uphold ... 

West then went on to list a number of well-know issues Canada is having with China, and which have been labelled as phony and manufactured. This includes the arrest of two Canadians being held in detention with little to no access to lawyers ... Pork-gate ... Canola-gate ...

His letter to the Executive of the UBCM also reminded them of ... a brutal crackdown on peaceful, legitimate protests in Hong Kong ... the internment of in excess of one million ethnic Uyghurs and other Muslims in China in camps who are subject to gross human rights violations, physical and psychological abuse and death ... all of which have been confirmed and condemned by Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, respected scholars, writers and governments from all over the world...

Well now as I mentioned, things have gone from bad to worse! According to a story in CTV News, just after 3pm this afternoon:

The Chinese Embassy says it has suspended all Canadian meat exports in a dramatic escalation of its diplomatic dispute with Canada over the December arrest of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver.


The latest Chinese move comes as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to depart Wednesday for the G20 leaders' summit, where he is expected to rely on U.S. President Donald Trump to raise the plight of two detained Canadians during a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
I know I will hear all kinds of reasons why we would be crazy to do this; however, it IS time we stood up for ourselves.  Countries like COMMUNIST China have under-priced our own manufacturing seeing factory after factory shut down --- and thousands of Canadian jobs have been lost.

On top of that ... much of what they send us has toxic poisons in it unsafe for humans ... they've shipped children's toys with toxic lead paint ... sent us food for the pets we love with all kinds of crap that is unsafe ... the list goes on and one ... never mind the human rights offenses that happen to their own citizens day after day.

Justin Trudeau has never drawn a single line in the sand that he won’t see crossed -- that’s probably a good thing as all he would have done is keep backing up to draw another line further back in the sand. 

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! 

Trudeau should get on the phone right now, and I don’t care if it is only 7am in Beijing, and tell Xi Jinping that he can get on the phone and tell the captain of every freighter headed out way, to turn around and head back to their home ports.

It won’t happen overnight, but it’s time to really on Canadians to manufacture and produce what we need here, not exclusively, but the countries we import from had better be ready to play be and decide the playing field is going to be even, or we don’t want what thy plan to send us.



MAKE SURE JUSTIN GETS THE MESSAGE!

Call his Parliamentary Office at ... (613) 992-4211

Call his Constituency Office at ... (514) 277-6020
Flood him with emails at ...

Brad West was right when he said, “What line does the Chinese Government have to cross before the UBCM says no more? Is there a line?”

It certainly appears there is not one – at least as far as our Federal Liberal government, led by Justin Trudeau is concerned.

THAT HAS TO END ... and if nothing else we as Canadians should check to see that we are not purchasing Chinese products when we are shopping.  Leaving Chinese manufactured products on the shelves will send a message to businesses that we don’t want their crap!!

Nurses Take Job Action After Years of NDP Neglect

Image Credit:  BC Nurses Union BC nurses have reached a breaking point after years of unsafe conditions, rising violence in the workplace and a government that wouldn’t listen. Now they are on the picket line fighting to be heard. Last week, nurses began job action with a 72-hour strike notice, refusing non-essential overtime and stepping back from non-nursing duties. As of Tuesday, they have escalated to picket lines for the first time in decades. This moment was avoidable. It is the result of years of unanswered concerns from the frontline workers who keep our hospitals running. Nurses have been raising the same concerns for years: unsafe staffing levels, rising violence on the job, and a workload no single person should have to carry. None of it is new, and none of it should have taken a strike vote to get the government's attention. "Nurses are exercising their legal right to job action, but it shouldn’t have had to come to this," said Kiel Giddens, MLA for...

British Columbians Still Don’t Know Who’s Paying for NDP’s BC Hydro Deal

The NDP is making billion-dollar promises with BC Hydro, but British Columbians still don’t know who will pay the bill. Last week’s memorandum of understanding isn’t what the federal government and the NDP are making it out to be. It’s an admission that the NDP failed to make the long-term investments needed to keep B.C. powered. Now British Columbians have serious questions about the cost and whether BC Hydro ratepayers will end up paying the price. David L. Williams, MLA for Salmon Arm-Shuswap and Shadow Minister for BC Hydro and Electrical Energy Development , said British Columbians deserve clear answers about the full implications of the Canada–British Columbia Cooperative Prosperity Agreement. “British Columbians deserve the full truth,” said Mr. Williams. “This multi-billion-dollar announcement does not answer who pays for cost overruns, who pays for new generation, who carries the risk if industrial customers do not materialize, or whether ratepayers will be forced ...

NDP Government Blames Everyone but Themselves

The federal government has announced new measures to support British Columbia's forestry sector, including $65 million in funding for projects across the province. While any support is welcome, it falls far short of the level of assistance other provinces have secured for key industries. Conservative Forests Critic Ward Stamer says the NDP government needs to take responsibility for its mismanagement of B.C.’s forest industry instead of trying to pass on the blame. Despite promising to create more jobs in the forest sector, the NDP government has overseen the loss of thousands of forestry jobs and 21 mill closures which have devastated communities. “If Premier Eby spent more time addressing the regulatory issues impacting the forestry sector than he did complaining about the federal government, we would not be in the position we are now,” said Stamer. “And instead of trying to place the blame for mill closures on Donald Trump, Minister of Forests Ravi Parmar should t...
