Not a bad article, despite it being written by the CBC, which as we all know is a paid off propaganda arm of the Liberal government.
Not sure what the government is trying to say in this piece, perhaps they are preparing us for greater collaboration with China, as opposed to the US, since we know boy wonder doesn't like/isn't liked by the US. This, of course, would be odd since they are holding 3 Canadians currently and Canada is planning to extradite a high ranking Chinese industrialist.
In any case, I believe nothing written by the CBC, they are not independent from the government.
