Ottawa launching review of Canada’s membership in China-led development bank
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland says Ottawa is launching a review of Canada’s membership in the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank as well as allegations raised by a former bank staffer who accused it of being “dominated by the Communist Party.”
Bob Pickard, the Canadian who was global communications director for the bank, resigned Tuesday from the institution, decrying what he called its “toxic culture” and urging Canada to withdraw from this “People’s Republic of China instrument”.
WHAT A GREAT GRIFT IDEA! LET’S PARTNER WITH A COMMUNST SLAVE STATE!
The Trudeau Liberal Government applied to become a member and here is Bill Morneau being welcomed by the president of the bank. Cry-stia Freeloader knew about and supported this bank for YEARS and just now thinks moving against it will indemnify her or protect her from her… pic.twitter.com/Bmoy4iY0Jt
