On China: “If you insist on living exclusively according to your highest principles, you’ll find yourself living with a very small number of people,” he writes.
My principles include isolating countries actively committing genocide but I guess that bar’s too high?

Yes, good point. I honestly think that this Government has tried to walk that fine line between necessary economic relations and voicing objections to their human rights policies. I acknowledge that they may not always have succeeded but governing is difficult.
Agreed. It’s honestly the thing I like about Trudeau the most. He stands by the moral principles that we have all been led to believe are Canadian values. At least while he has been in office. Canada needs to punch up more even when the consequences can be difficult. Without leaders showing courage,the whole society gives up on their principles.
2 strikes against Trudeau and 3 more against his cabinet. So far we're on par with the government he succeeded. In most cases we're talking about over-stepping bounds in the process of public service. That goes for the CPC as well.
Can we not talk about these people like they rip people off for a living? It's the kind of judgement calls that constantly get overlooked in private enterprises every day. We should instead be thankful that these public servants are able to manage the vast majority of their work within the higher standards that we hold them to, and the ethics commission is able to catch the instances where they don't.

I think both China’s behaviour and the clarity of US policy are helping to focus minds.

Trudeau stands by moral principles since when? How many ethics convictions has he had? The “man” is devoid of morals and ethics!
