“The very idea of
reciprocity between Canada’s
rule-of-law system based on economic and individual freedom and China’s
totalitarian regime boggles the imagination.”
Terence Corcoran, writing in the Financial Post, in an
article headlined, “Fascism by another name,” October 26, 2012. [1]
The Harper government has formed a “strategic partnership”
with Communist China, and we see “free enterprise” political and business
leaders and some media pundits praising this “partnership” of communism and
capitalism. Big business invests in communist China while shutting down plants in
democratic countries.
The latest business deal being praised by some is the
proposed takeover of Nexen by China
National Offshore Oil Corp. (CNOOC) a State Owned Enterprise (SOE).
This deal has not
been debated in parliament and makes one wonder why not? The Globe and Mail of
October 25, 2012 stated: “Conservative MPs defeated a last minute push for
Parliamentary hearings on a Canada-China investment treaty, which cabinet will
be able to enact into law within days.” Are Canadian resources and sovereignty
going to be signed away without input by the peoples’ representatives, or the
people of Canada?
If so: The question must be asked: Has Canada succumbed to authoritarianism?
“The authoritarian
elites on both sides operate an ‘over world’ of organized conspiracy which
mirrors the underworld of organized crime.” Charles Levinson in his book “Vodka
Cola.”
The book “Vodka Cola” revealed in intimate detail the
financial connections between the multi-national corporate elites in the west
and the communist dictators in the Soviet Union
before the “fall of communism.” Yet, these same corporate elites at that time
were telling all and sundry about the “dangers of communism” while at the same
time profiting from their business deals with the communist dictators.
Now fast forward to today and the multi-national corporate
communists/fascists and their political puppets have found another dictatorship
to profit from. Many are now firmly ensconced in communist China. China is a
country where the organs are ripped from some of the people without their
consent. A one child policy has resulted in forced abortions. Slave labour has been reported: “Thirty-one
dirty and disorientated workers have been rescued from a brickwork factory in China, where
they were being held as virtual slaves.”[2]
Dissidents are tortured and it was reported that an alleged torturer was welcomed to Canada. The Epoch Times of May 29, 2007 had this to say:
“…Chinese official Bo Xilai was served with legal papers Monday, questions remain as to why the Chinese Commerce Minister accused of crimes against humanity was allowed to enter Canada in the first place. Despite the fact that Bo was one of a number of high-ranking Chinese officials who have been on an RCMP watch list, he freely entered the country with a trade delegation from China last Friday.” The Epoch Times article goes on to state: “Bo is accused of overseeing a systematic campaign of torture against adherents of Falun Gong, a Chinese meditation practice, in the northeast Chinese province of Liaoning, where he was governor from 2001 to 2004.” [3]

This is the kind of system that Harper’s government has
signed a “strategic partnership” with and is in the process of deciding whether
the Nexen deal is of, “net benefit” to Canada. Based on the evidence of
the atrocities committed by the dictatorship in China, one has to ask is their any
“net benefit” in allowing a communist State Owned Enterprise (SOE) having
business interests in our country. If we do, are we guilty by association in
the crimes against the Chinese people?
“The biggest beneficiary of the trade deficit with China and unemployment in the USA is big business in both America and China. For many years, these
businesses have voluntarily defended the interests of the Chinese Communist
party. In these issues of unfair trade and manipulation of currency, they
share the interests of the Chinese Communist Party.” [4]

Do the words about “big business” above also apply to Canada?
I believe, what we are seeing in our world today is a
combination of multi-national greed and political treachery. Money and profits count far more than corporate
ethics or national sovereignty. The business elites and their political
handmaidens do not care who they rub shoulders with as long as there is money
to be made and to hell with human rights.
“The multi-national
companies are, therefore, the core of modern capitalism and have replaced the
Western nation - state as the real political power centers of the age.”
Charles Levinson, page 16, “Vodka Cola.”
Charles Levinson, page 16, “Vodka Cola.”
I believe the powerful partnerships of global
capitalism/fascism and communism have become a danger to a free society. Corporate
elites involve themselves and invest in countries with slave labour and other
atrocities. Now they are seeking to consummate a business deal between
capitalism and communism in this country. Therefore, one has to ask: Where are the
business and political ethics if this communist State Owned Enterprise, CNOOC
deal is given approval in Canada
by the Harper government? The words below are worth thinking about?
“By Nov. 1 three of China's national oil companies will have more
power to shape Canada's
energy markets as well as challenge the politics of this country than Canadians
themselves. And you can thank Prime Minister Stephen Harper for this economic
treason.” [5]
