Sad that it takes U.S. publications to put Xi telling off JT incident in its proper context, as here is another one: washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/editor…

See? This how responsible media viewed the Trudeau exchange internationally. If you saw it any other way you saw what you wanted to see.

Trudeau gave him a smackdown.

Trudeau is a drug addict. His parents were drug addicts. But in either case - he has nothing to do with transparency. The issue here is that as fast as Trudeau wants to see Canada as a vassal state of China, it’s not fast enough for his master Xi.

Xi is upset because Trudeau made deals to cooperate with other Asian countries. Now, China doesn't have complete influence in the region.

Temper tantrum? Did he throw things, kick dirt on his shoes, shout, stamp his feet? Or did he express what he was angry about and offer to shake Trudeau's hand? Where is the tantrum?

"it’s standard operating procedure for democratic leaders to leak elements favorable to themselves to the press after meeting with foreign government officials." not clear to me that what you're describing is somehow synonymous with democracy

Canadian media could use some “transparency”.

Journalists that are failing to call-out, or call-in, colleagues are complicit.

If you feel Canada has valuable media, give your head a shake.

In my view there are great differences in culture, custom, history, thinking and working methods between China and the West. There will be a long way to go to understand each other. China is learning from Western civilization with an open attitude.

Ok, fine. But let's see fewer Opinion pieces claiming that the PM was "humiliated" and just accepted the "scolding" Many news reports confirm he stood up to Xi and explained what we do in a democracy. AND: NBC News: Xi threw a temper tantrum at PM
