Letters, Aug. 27: Communist China is not our friend and we shouldn't be doing business with it

Daphne Bramham’s Aug. 19 column on Communist China’s blatant attempt to undermine and subvert Canadian democracy is a significant contribution to the topic. The insidious and outrageous efforts of this awful dictatorship has been told in detail in two very important recent books: Michael Pillsbury’s The Hundred Year Marathon and former Postmedia columnist Jonathan Manthorpe’s Claws of the Panda: Beijing’s Campaign of Influence and Intimidation in Canada.

Red China is not benign, it is not our friend, and we should not be seeking to do more business with it. Would we have welcomed “industrialists” or a massive influx of indoctrinated students from Russia in the middle of the Cold War? Yet that is what we are deliberately doing today with China.Where is traffic plan?Any new study on North Shore traffic should begin with the logic behind the continuous approval of huge housing developments in North and West Vancouver.

SNC-Lavalin is a large company and I wouldn’t want to see any jobs lost either. But they have to play by the rules and stop trying to get around the legal system for the crimes they allegedly have committed by lobbying their Liberal friends. A good way to accomplish this is to have Trudeau resign and have somebody with some integrity take over the Liberal party. Wilson-Raybould comes to mind. Only then will we see “Sunny Ways”.

Perhaps the party should consider recalling the leaflets, although not before consultation with SNC-Lavalin.Same rules should applyI am a huge fan of the sharing economy, but as soon as the sharing goes beyond me and my new Craigslist friends, it becomes a business that must compete with the same courses to pass, rules, regulations, permits and insurance that existing businesses and professionals in the industry must live by.
