Human Rights, Canadian Diplomacy Style

Canada's Conservative government will embrace a One China policy, according to United Press International:
Canada's minority Conservative government is moving to assure China it supports a "one-China" policy including Tibet and Taiwan, the Globe and Mail reported.

Foreign affairs experts told the newspaper Canada has officially held the policy since establishing diplomatic relations with Beijing since 1970 but in recent weeks, Canadian officials have stopped using couched terms regarding Taiwan or Tibet.
You know, this gives me an idea. Guess what, Canada? We're going to annex you. Don't try to stop it; our military is far vaster than yours, even with our Iraq commitment. And why not? You're white-majority, we're white-majority. We're a former British colony, you're a former British colony. Oh, and when we come we're going to have a colonization policy by which we move Texans and Southerners into every one of your cities. Aren't you happy to be part of the Motherland? (We forgot, we'll also enforce an official Christian faith on you, of course. You don't have any small, harmless, unorthodox religious sects, do you? Because we hate people like that.)

The free world cannot shirk its responsibility to marginalize tyrants and murderers like those in the Chinese Communist Party. We must do our best to ensure the freedom of Taiwan against their would-be oppressors. We must speak out publicly about the horrors being perpetrated against Christians, Falun Gong, and Tibetans. The PRC are the real imperialists here, and we must stop kowtowing to them.
