Honestly, cutting out Canada is just a mean spirited move on the part of MD. It's almost as if they are saying go give Amazon your money instead. Sigh...
SaskAudioGuyBS'ing how? There's real evidence the Chinese aim to gain influence over several countries right now by buying up the land, they're even doing it in the USA. It's a good way to gain control over a nation with poor long-term sight and without dirtying their hands in war. Half of Canada is literally owned by Chinese right now, specifically rich families and conglomerates linked directly back to the People's Republic...
I mean I really don't care, Chinese rule over Canada would likely be an improvement.
