It's funny how differently we can read these things. It would be also interesting - though difficult - to know how much filter the translator has in choice of words and tone.

To me, it looks like Xi is the one that DGAF. He knew the cameras were there, and went way outside of diplomatic norms to air a grievance.

Trudeau looks to me like a young child eager to show his teacher or parent his latest coloring masterpiece, only to have it dismissed and pointed out that he coloured outside of the lines.

I have zero love for the Chinese government, but it's pretty clear Xi doesn't take Trudeau or Canada seriously. It's all well and good to 'stand up to the bad guy', but they are the world's second largest economy and our second largest trading partner.

I'm ready to admit my opinion of Trudeau may be colouring my take here... I think he's a twit and, for example, I wouldn't trust him to park my car
