Trudeau rejects ‘prisoner exchange’ of two Canadians in China for Meng GlobePolitics

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is rejecting a potential “prisoner exchange” to obtain the freedom of Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, despite his failure to use recent China-U.S. trade talks as leverage to secure the release of the two Canadians detained in China.

“We have been engaged, as a priority measure, in securing the return of the two Michaels and clemency for Robert Schellenberg [who is facing the death penalty in China],” Mr. Trudeau said. “We have engaged very closely with the United States on many different paths in terms of resolving this situation.”

He added the fact that Iran does not recognize dual citizenship has posed a challenge in Canada’s efforts to fight for the rights of the families of the 57 Canadians who died in the crash.

Natural Disaster Calls Could Hurt The Army’s Ability To Fight: Commander“If this becomes of a larger scale, more frequent basis, it will start to affect our readiness” Dealing with natural disasters and aid to the civil power both in Canada and abroad will probably become the military’s top priority due to the existential threat of human caused climate breakdown with a need for more resources to be focused on this threat. The number of troops logically has to go up, both RegForce and Reserves. Raising another brigade group for Atlantic Canada - 3CMBG - is the way to go. What a crock!
