This entire article is horseshit and is championing trade with the US over China while every single one of its claims against China can equally be applied to the US, and it ignores the very real and very present threats of force and fascism that is the current US.
Last I checked China hasn’t threatened to invade Canada. China’s trade policy with Canada has been fairly tit-for-tat and China only retaliates economically when Canada gives in to pressure from the US with punitive trade measures towards China.
Better to trade fairly with China despite their problems than the US which demonstrates complete disregard for their allies, their current trade deals, and the rule of law, not to mention their extremely regressive policies on the environment and social freedoms.
China isn’t perfect but no country is and Canada cannot solely trade with democracies in the Europe if it wants to have a viable working economy.
