I totally agree with you about western media bias. For sure it's not perfect in China, but guess what...No country is.

I read Reuters and CBC news it makes HK sound like a warzone. Seriously, protesters shutdown Pearson Airport two days in a row what's the reaction from Canadians going to be?

I returned from China one time during the G20 being in Toronto. Way less people and the police sure seemed extreme to me.

Before people judge what it's like in China o really suggest first coming here. It's really feels just as free as Canada. And this is coming from a guy with a Canadian maple.leaf tartoo on his back.
I mean sure their communist government has politically murdered and willfully starved to death tens of millions of people within living memory without having to pay a single karmic or political cent of reconciliation for any of it, but hey who's perfect? John A Macdonald made some off-colour remarks over 150 years ago so really Canada is every bit as bad when you think about it.
