When the Elephants are Stomping in Rage, Wise Mice Hide

Canada, on the other hand, has gotten caught out in the open.
First U.S President* Donald Trump attacked Canada on trade. Then Saudi Arabia punished it for speaking up for human rights. Now China has the country in its cross-hairs, detaining two Canadians in apparent retaliation for the arrest of a top Chinese tech executive on behalf of the United States.

Canada is caught between two super powers and taking the punishment — and its ally to the south has been conspicuously absent in coming to its aid.
Lesson to the world: If you take a stand, Trump will not have your back if there is any blowback. He will throw you under the bus, all day, every day.

  1. Prediction, Tech CFO (out on bail) hotfoots it back to China, as Canada looks the other way. Donnie stomps and cries.
