Vacation News Round-up
I'm on vacation and uninclined to keep up on my posting. But here is a short news round-up of interesting stories for the day.
China has suggested that Canada's plan to bestow honorary Canadian citizenship upon the Dalai Lama may hurt relations, including valuable trade ties. Link Here.
The Vancouver Sun (subscription required to read story) suggests that the hundreds of thousands of Taiwanese/Chinese with Canadian citizenship may pose a huge problem in the case of war with China. The panic and resultant huge effort required to extricate Canadian-Lebanese from Lebanon, has led people to consider other large groups of overseas Canadians.
The Toronto Star has a soft news story about China's growth, language learning, and increasing trade ties. These stories seem to crop up almost on a weekly basis. They have asked the important question though: where is Tim Horton's in Asia?
