Nevertheless, after years of being groomed by Beijing, Canada’s business and political elites, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, still believe that the best policy is to allow China’s Communist regime to walk all over them.
As someone who has studied the influence of China in Canada, it is clear to me that this country needs to put in place defences against the covert, coercive and corrupt influence of the CPC, which has been systematically eroding resistance to it from within.
Since the pandemic began, attitudes against the Chinese government have been hardening in Canada, and some politicians have begun to speak out. It is clearly time for a China reset. Canada must seek to build new alliances with democracies such as Japan and South Korea, and reinforce its relationships with India, Australia and the United Kingdom now, before it is too late.
