True dat Eric
We are working with GE on COMACs C919 new narrow body passenger jet.....the number of U.S. west coast aerospace companies cosying up to Bejing on this is amazing. Big Chinese population on the west Coast as I am sure you know. Even Arnie got involved a couple of years ago when he was Governor.

Our west coast too ... and, if the Yanks don't go for Keystone, I've no doubt that Canada will build a pipeline in our own country ... all the way to the coast, where oil can be loaded into tankers heading for Chine. Tar Sands oil ... where there's muck, there's brass.

The censors have been working overtime Ol
Sino Weibo their popular social networking site had nothing on and a search for Hong Kong made no mention.
Tv viewers were misinformed on the mainland saying a few thousand people has assembled in a local park celebrating the China Government
Instagram the photo sharing site was completely blocked.

For a minute there I was wondering what the Hudson's Bay Company had to do with it ... but I twigged it, finally.

And I believe Hydburn Borough Council will do what it has to do ... as long as it doesn't offend local muslims.
