Changing Politics & Economics of Western Countries vs The Pariah

In 2018, President Donald Trump signed into law the Taiwan Travel Act, and this visit is part of America's policy of sending high-level U.S. officials to Taiwan to reaffirm the U.S.-Taiwan friendship, pursue shared interests, and celebrate the shared values that bond the United States and Taiwan to the international family of democracies.



In contrast to authoritarian systems, U.S. and Taiwan societies and economies are uniquely equipped to drive global progress in areas such as medicine and science to help the world tackle emerging threats. The COVID-19 pandemic is the most recent example of joint U.S.-Taiwan efforts to confront global challenges for the good of the world.

It is about time the US started treating with the dignity that nation deserves. Shen Li might have a different opinion.

... SYDNEY—Australian federal police raided the home and office of a man employed by an Australian politician as part of a foreign interference investigation into whether he was working to advance "Chinese state interests," according to court documents.



... The case is the first test of the foreign interference law which was introduced in 2018, spurred in part by a classified Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) report on Chinese activity.



The legislation sparked anger from Beijing which consistently denies it meddles in the political affairs of other countries.



Federal police searched and seized material from Zhang's Sydney home, business premises, and the parliamentary office of his employer, New South Wales (NSW) state Labor politician Shaoquett Moselmane, on June 26.



Moselmane, who has been suspended from the NSW Labor party following the raids, has previously said he had not done anything wrong and was not a suspect.



... The documents said it was alleged Zhang was suspected of acting on behalf of the "Chinese state and Party apparatus" in a private social media chat group with Moselmane, to advance the policy goals of the Chinese government.



He is alleged to have encouraged Moselmane to advocate for "Chinese state interests," they said.



This conduct is alleged to be unlawful because it was covert and sought to influence an Australian political process

Theresa Tam is utterly incompetent. She said the virus posed no threat to Canada at the end of February, she said travel bans don't work and well into March she said masks not only don't work, but could spread the virus. Her gross incompetence and/or lies has done more to spread the virus faster in this country than any other person. She is Canada's version of patient 31 in South Korea. She should not only be fired, she should be held accountable for her incompetence and lies.

Agreed.

In a real country an "F" alright ... for "F"ired .. and  long ago

Canada's Chief Public Health Officer, Dr. Theresa Tam, said this week that the coronavirus pandemic may continue for years, as will measures taken to combat it, like mandatory masking and physical distancing, even if researchers manage to discover a vaccine.



This latest "news" is just the latest installment in the bizarre world of ever-shifting goalposts being laid down by many of our public health officials, most notably in Canada by Dr. Theresa Tam.



Hearing that we may be forced to take measures against COVID-19 for "years" to come is quite different from what we heard when the lockdown began. Back then, we only needed a few weeks, maybe a month, to "flatten the curve" and ensure there was enough space in hospitals.



But that's been the story of this pandemic. We've received confusing and contradictory advice throughout. Dr. Tam spent months telling us we should not wear masks because it might actually increase the spread, until she reversed her position on them at the same time as the World Health Organization did. Now they're mandatory.



We were told limiting international air travel and closing the border to non-essential traffic wouldn't work right up until the day that they closed the borders.



We were told our government was prepared for the pandemic, when now we know it wasn't.







If Dr. Tam wanted us to take her predictions about the future of this pandemic seriously, she shouldn't have spent months passing off WHO directives that were made at the behest of the Communist Party of China as medical advice that would help Canadians.
