What friendly socailist countries who are supposed to be friends do to those who those who purchase 80% of their GDP out put..
While the Virus is exploding just over the border in New York ,California , Washington and other southern states on a vertical rise. Governor Cumo of NY, crying for assistance. Short of supplies to deal with the infected and critical outbreak.
C&P Canadian doctors are currently sounding the alarm that our health care system is lacking much needed supplies as we face an inevitable uptick in COVID-19 cases. They worry about everything from ventilators in ICUs to gloves for family physicians and specialists.
Dr. Kulvinder Gill, President of the Concerned Ontario Doctors, on National Post Radio on SiriusXM Canada Talks Wednesday morning. Said a particularly troubling fact is that Canada very recently gave away 16 tonnes of medical equipment to China.
, Global Affairs Canada announced that: “To support China’s response to the outbreak, Canada has deployed approximately 16 tonnes of personal protective equipment, to the country since February 4, 2020.”
Canada’s first case was identified on Jan. 25 and by the time we started shipping that equipment to China we already had 5 confirmed cases .
What were the feds thinking at the time? Did they believe that our contribution to China would help stop it from coming here? Did they anticipate China would use the masks, wash them off and then ship them back? Or were they not thinking at all?
Maybe, hopefully, one good deed begets another however China soon after turned shiploads of medical supplies around manufactured by American companies there. Which were destined for America. , Instead China delivered the first batch of test kits and masks to Iran. Wednesday, it was announced that China is sending one million masks to France to assist them. Plus other shipments to countries which did not include the US or Canada.

Sickening;
When asked Canada's prime minister said he believed it was the right thing to do. and was satisfied with the action of helping countries around the Globe, He said production in North America was ramping up . ( In the USA) Canada could purchase more. A bid by Canada for part of the American production of medical equipment would only create additional stress the already strained supply for their own infected areas. Does he care ? "Not." It is a great example of the underlying doctrine of socialist thinking. Take all you can get, Promise everything, Give nothing. Exploit your friends at every opportunity in trying to suck up for a new one. Canadian Media continually support China while are totally derogatory toward the US administration. While yearly trade with China is far less than is done in one month with the USA Perhaps two weeks would be a better comparison. Trudeau like a rabid dog bights at the hand that feeds the Country.
The pork barreling by the Democrats for passing the funding bill was no different. demands to pass the bill. Just to further their leftist Agenda. Had nothing to do with treating the Virus.

Democrat Congressman; Rahm Emanuel - You never let a serious crisis go to waste....
Despite all the talk coming from the White House, it is clear our strategic supply chain is inadequate. As demonstrated by the frustrating struggle to produce the ventilators, masks and other equipment that health-care workers need in this crisis,
Our focus today shouldn’t simply be to defeat this virus — which we’ll do. We need to leverage this challenge. Our bailouts came with strings attached. |
