After their party lost another federal election last year, the Chinese Canadian Conservative Association (CCCA) made some striking comments about the Tory platform — and Canada’s relations with Beijing.
Spokesman Joe Li said the Conservative push for a tougher stance on China had alienated voters of Chinese descent and cost the party three ridings.
Li promoted a more dovish approach, saying Ottawa started the “war” that led to the arbitrary detention of two Canadians, that China should “peacefully” unite with Taiwan and criticism of Beijing’s human-rights record was counter-productive.
