CHINA HOME ON CANADA'S RANGE

Home, Home On The Range

(oh, give me a home, where the buffalo roam)

To Orwell Today,

Hey! It could be only me, but perhaps other Canadians might be somewhat disturbed with images of President Hu of China backing Mr. Martin into a corner as he views this part of "greater China" for the first time.

I have a recurring image in my mind of Martin going on about democracy, prison factories, dissidents, import-export quotas and goals and all the other usual stuff with Hu smiling an inscrutable smile all the while toying with some gold currency and some bullets; "Take your choice, Paul, both are useful, don't you agree?" Yikes!

...just a thought,
Gregor

Greetings Gregor,

Yes, Canadians should REMEMBER WHO HU IS (if they ever knew who he was in the first place).

Chinese President Hu Jintao in Ottawa for first state visit to Canada, CBC, Sep 9, 2005 (...With reference to China's human rights record, Prime Minister Paul Martin said that he and President Hu Jintao had "open and frank" discussions about Tibet, Falun Gong and 10 human rights cases... Canada spends about $50 million annually on foreign development in China, much of it fostering rights research and legal development there. Conservative MPs asked this week why such Canadian aid is necessary in a country that holds $750 billion in foreign currency reserves...)

And where's China getting the money to buy our resources? They're supposedly a third-world country and are recipients of millions of dollars in aid from Canadian taxpayers.

Something Hu said while he was here (see CHINA TALKS TOUGH TO CANADA) was that his "most important concern was the survival of China's citizens". Too bad Martin didn't express similiar concerns for the survival of Canada's citizens.

But I don't think Hu was talking about all 1.3 billion of China's citizens, who are of no concern whatsoever to "the Party". He probably just meant the top several million or so who are wealthy enough to use Canada as their new "home, home on the range" and us as their new "slaves to be expended like so much coal or oil" (as Orwell so succinctly put it).

All the best,
Jackie Jura

PS - Martin lost all-important face when a ship (named after his wife) in the shipping company he owns got caught shipping millions of dollars worth of cocaine into Canada on Canada Day 2004, just days after he became Prime Minister. See CANADA'S PM SHIPS COCAINE
