Yet again, the Trudeau government sends a message to China that they can treat our nation like garbage without consequence.
Communist China continues to abuse Canada, treating our nation horrendously by arbitrarily detaining two Canadian Citizens, blocking our exports, and repeatedly denigrating us in official remarks.
And yet, not only is the Trudeau government refusing to take any strong actions in response, they’re actually ensuring that China profits from it.
As I reported earlier, the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction ripped the Trudeau government for allowing Chinese steel companies to produce parts of the two massive LNG projects in BC. The projects – valued at $42 Billion – will now be something that China is able to profit from, meaning jobs for Canadian construction workers, and profit for Canadian companies will be lost and go to China instead.
It’s a disgusting move for a government to make, and it’s much worse considering that it sends a message to Communist China that there are zero consequences for their ongoing abuse of our country.
The Post Millennial has also reported on this betrayal of Canada’s steel companies and Canada’s construction workers, speaking directly with the head of United Steelworkers:
United Steelworkers’ national director Ken Neumann says the Liberal government’s decision to drop tariffs on Chinese steel for the construction of two west coast liquid natural gas plants is “absolutely ludicrous”.
“They should be embarrassed because what they’re doing is continuing to give to China. Here’s a country that continues to dump. They’ve been found guilty,” Neumann told The Post Millennial.
“And yet they’re going to allow these Canadian projects to use Chinese steel to manufacture some of these modules in China and bring them over here – to me that is just absolutely ludicrous.”
Neumann says the government is abandoning Canadian workers and Canadian Steel:
“They keep telling us how they stand up for the workers and ‘we’ve got your back’,” said Neumann.
“Unsurprisingly, they’re not prepared to own up to what they’re doing and that’s abandoning Canadian workers and the Canadian steel industry and that’s where our members work.”
Betrayal
It’s tough to overstate how big a betrayal this is. Canadian workers will lose jobs, Canadian steel companies will lose profits, and Communist China will benefit instead, even as China treats our nation so horribly.
There are many reasons the Liberals must be defeated, and this is a big one. No Canadian should allow our government to sell out our nation and our interests to anyone, let alone China.
What a disgrace.
