@Awa no Gaijin - China is abusing people today, en masse. Further, they deny it in the face of lots of proof and testimony. Lying to "save face".

Canada is trying to rectify their passed transgressions. Facing current and prior mistakes shows an enlightened culture.

How does what Canada is doing help fix China? That's the real question. Seems nothing can fix the broken leadership in China, short of complete replacement of the CCP (or whatever name they want to go by to hide their current guilt) and single-party system.

China will self implode this decade so don’t concern yourselves about them too much - they’ll be gone

Haha, good joke, as if all the other ones who take in masses of Uighur and other similar in hundreds of thousands wouldn’t self-implode even quite much earlier than China without or less Uighur.

Canada took in over 50,00 Syrian refugees and has a long history of taking in refugees. Yet it hasn't self-imploded has it. How many has refugees has Japan taken in over the last 30yrs? 100? Maybe not even. China is clearing abusing, torturing, and killing them.

Good for Canada.

The genocide against the Uyghurs by Communist China has been brutal and relentless. The CCP will throw another tantrum over this and put pressure on Canada- but these 10,000 lives will now be saved from genocide.

Communist China is doomed.

Toblerone....

The muslim world is absolutely silent on the Chinese persecution of the Uyghurs.

They know its just an excuse for the west to bash China due to their failings to be able to remain competitive economically.

China will not care an inch.

The 10,000 Uyghur refugees will care. Which is the point.

Muslims are called on to stand for justice and to support those who are oppressed regardless of how rich and mighty their oppressors may be. Does OIC stand firm on these Islamic principles?

How is the Chinese dictatorship's genocide coming along?

China is extremely racist. Ask anyone who isn't from the "correct" ethnic group how high in business and govt they will be allowed to achieve. Of course, the Chinese Constitution says that racism isn't allowed, unless it disrupts "harmony" or is otherwise an issue to the Han CCP Govt.

Han Chinese don't realize that the Uyghur will end up saving China from poor central control decisions in the future. Same with Tibetans, assuming both groups are allowed to speak, read and write their native languages. Preventing that is against the Chinese Constitution, unless it disrupts "harmony" or is otherwise an issue to the Han CCP Govt.

See a pattern there?

Ask any honest foreigner living in China if they've been discriminated against based on race.

Canada is doing well to provide asylum. Now they just need to clear out the Chinese Nationalists from Canada.

China will not care an inch.

Ever notice that the Muslim countries are not making any noise about Muslim persecution in China?

Or that the same western nations ignore or aid real persecution of Muslims in Palestine, Yemen, Syria....?

Just watch this thread, you'll see.
