A valid argument can be made that Trudeau speaking out explicitly against China will only make it harder for China to release the Canadian hostages. China is all about saving "face" and there is no way in hell that they are going to bend to our toothless criticism. Realistically, our only path is to plead Biden/US to work something out with China on the Huawei case unless we want to get into hostage diplomacy with China ourselves.
I have no idea why CivicBlues is turning this into a political party debate and even bringing Trump into this... The motion passed 266-0 and had support across all opposition parties including most Liberal MPs who participated. Traum was criticizing the Trudeau administration for abstaining and not the entire Liberal party.
