While the headline is clearly bollocks, there is absolutely benefit to Canada warming its relationship with China, the body does have a kernel of a point, one which is however ALREADY clearly the main intent of the Canadian govt.
Yes there are dangers to being dependent on China, they have zero compunction on using any leverage they have to their own benefit. So does the US.
The body of the article pointing towards a grouping of the remaining developed countries (EU, Japan, Korea, Commonwealth etc) has been clearly Canada’s primary activity for the last 6 months, and is in fact the only useful way forward to deal with the US going rogue.
However balancing the hostile powers (China, USA, Russia) by playing them off against each other where possible is also useful.
No it’s not

“Turning Japanese” was believed to euphemistically refer to masturbation—i.e. the act causing the man to squint and therefore resemble a Japanese’s person’s eyes or possibly, referencing the British slang word “Jap’s eye” (the urinary meatus) and the act of turning referring to the process of masturbation—but the song’s author Fenton denied that claim in an interview on VH1. “It could have been (turning) Portuguese, Lebanese, anything that fitted with that phrase. It has nothing to do with the Japanese.” “The first time the idea of masturbation came up was when we were touring America. It was written about that ‘turning Japanese’ was an English phrase for masturbation, which it wasn’t.” Guitarist Rob Kemp went on to say, “It’s a love song about somebody who had lost their girlfriend and was going slowly crazy, turning Japanese is just all the cliches of our angst… turning into something you never expected to.”
