I never said they're warm and cozy, not even close. They're a country I've given up on understanding culturally and from a humanitarian perspective.
That said, are they going to invade Canada? No. Not economically or militarily. Economic partnerships? Definitely. But money will change hands if they decide they want our resources. The cost (using the term cost in every context) for them to occupy a country of this size both after breaking through an international force of power is unimaginable. This notion of 'the Chinese are taking over the world!' may be true in some economic terms, but not to the degree that people here are suggesting. It's actually ridiculous.
