What I don't understand is why we are tying these agreement to human rights issues and judicial matters when it should be tied to reciprocity. If a state owned, and lets be clear, all Chinese companies are state owned to some degree, are allowed to buy Canadian technology companies - or any Canadian company for that matter - the Canadian companies should have the right to buy Chinese companies. Do you think the Chinese government is going to allow any Canadian company to buy a Chinese technology company?  Not a chance. Hell, Amazon can't even operate in China.  It seems like real short term gain for future subservience.
