In his speech at his party’s convention in Calgary on Friday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre expressed his wariness about the “strategic partnership” the Carney government has struck with China.
Cognizant that many western Conservatives welcomed Beijing’s tariff relief on canola provided by an agreement to allow 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles into Canada, he did not expand on his misgivings.
The deal is deliberately limited in scope and certainly does not justify the wilder ramblings of some MAGA types like President Donald Trump’s former adviser, Steve Bannon, who mused about Canada and China conducting joint military exercises in the Arctic.
Carney doesn’t care about no Taiwan.
