Well, Hong Kong is almost certainly going to lose its special trade status now. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-pompeo-declares-that-hong-kong-is-no-longer-autonomous-from-mainland/ It's like the CCP read the fable about the goose that lays golden eggs and decided that the real moral is that the farmer didn't kill the goose hard enough

I don't see how that hurts anyone but HK citizens and maybe a few non-Chinese banks?

Shumagorath posted:I don't see how that hurts anyone but HK citizens and maybe a few non-Chinese banks? I mean one of the reasons so much trade goes to China via HK is that HK has a fairly functioning legal system and government independent of the CCP. Losing that independence way ups the risk of dealing with China as a western company, so it's not a matter of helping or hurting HK citizens but rather assessing the safety of dealing with China for outsiders. This will almost certainly hurt the HK citizenry.

Shumagorath posted:As much as my heart bleeds for the fraudster who is out on bail in two very un-seized mansions, the CBSA passing her PIN codes to the RCMP is just the sort of thing that could sink the case in our Worst Timeline. If it was that strong you'd think that they would have led with it. It's a pretty hard sell considering the cops had a warrant and forensic evidence has already been done on her devices that show they weren't searched.

Absolutely loving floored that Meng's first hurdle tripped her up, but there is still a long way to go. Hey RCMP/CSIS, I hope you're doing a thorough background check on every person in this photo. I was 90% positive that the judge was going to grasp at any straw to throw this out and be done with it, but I guess that she's either very principled, or the evidence was nothing but a slam-dunk and impossible to ignore. I'm guessing that the CCP is right this minute ramping up their online and Canadian resident operatives to give Judge Heather Holmes the "Mack Horton Special" for displaying such blatant racism/corruption/clownliness.
