“I know, Mr. Chair, that some like to talk tough on China. To those who are seduced by this one-dimensional view, I say this: while it is easy to be tough, let's continue to be smart. Let's not fall into the temptation of tough and irresponsible rhetoric that will generate no tangible result for Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, our farmers and entrepreneurs, and human rights victims and advocates. The China of 2020 is not the China of 2015 or even the China of 2018. We see a country and a leadership increasingly prepared to throw its weight around to advance its interests.”
