@apmassaro3 Canada is a paradise for kleptocrats.
It has all the lifestyle advantages of the US, and no one asks questions.

Yes, discourse may have been a bit oversimplified and caused harm, but the ppl calling it out shouldn't be the two of the biggest CCP apologists.
The Senator and UBC Prof have been repeatedly dismissing dissidents and playing down the Uyghur genocide. You are the problem.
UN Experts:“Forced organ harvesting in China appears to be targeting specific ethnic, linguistic or religious minorities held in detention, often without being explained the reasons or given arrest warrants, at different locations...We are deeply concerned https://t.co/EmyOnBT2uR
