Middle class in china is 350 million, what ever middle means. This is done by having 1 billion slaves. I sure hope they dont get pissed off..

Why not? Force the owning class here to re-invest. Quality union jobs making trinkets!

China really likes our coal, so much that they own most of Teck.

Having 1 of 14 board members that is a China official isn't very scandalous. Especially in the context that they are the top markets for the company.

Also couldn't find any info about current (2016) Chinese ownership on either the TSX or NASDAQ institutional owners lists. Which implies that Chinese state is either a) held privately (very unlikely) or b) doesn't exist in the way you're implying.

What you're probably thinking about is this 2009 announcement of the China Investment Corp getting a 17% stake in Teck, but the CIC's Canadian office closed in ~2015 as a result of sustaining massive losses when over a couple of billion USDs where lost in Canada over the same time period.

The CCP is one of the most rotten, murderous organizations on Earth, and it will end up a stain on the history of 20/21st century humanity.

They hang the photo of one of history's most evil mass murderers in their most prominent public square, in which they also saw fit to massacre their own citizens for merely standing in protest.

They practice absolute brutality in dealing with all forms of dissent and exercise of free speech or assembly, with hundreds rotting away in prison for the imaginary crime of subversion, including a Nobel peace prize winner. They have no issue with the tactics of arbitrary detentions, forced labor camps, disappearances, or torture in the name of control. If you run afoul of their interests, you are lucky to get as much as a sham trial.

Great first evar post!! Welcome to NBR!

If it weren't for the commercial advertorial link in your signature, I'd almost believe you aren't a bot.

Trudeau confirms Canada exploring free trade agreement with China

How on earth can this possibly end up benefiting Canada? Look at what including Mexico in NAFTA has done to manufacturing in Canada and the US. Sure we get cheaper prices, but what good are those when you're out of work because someone in a foreign country can afford to work for a tiny fraction of what you will.

you will be out of work anyway, because robots.
