Not to mention in Canada, even in Nyasaland, if Rock wants to do anything, he must first listen to the opinions of Anton Sharan (Speaker of the Nyasaland State Assembly) and cannot go his own way.
Democracy is essentially the dictatorship of the majority over the minority. Chinese Americans are a minority in Canada. There is a long way to go to improve the status of Chinese Americans. There is one person who cannot be bypassed no matter what.
That is William Lyon Mackenzie King, who is likely to become Canada's next prime minister.
King was born in Berlin, Ontario, in 1974. He is not yet 50 years old. He is a rigid and tough man and a well-known strongman in Canadian politics. Last year, the former leader of the Liberal Party, Laurier, passed away. King succeeded Laurier as leader of the Liberal Party. He
Strive to integrate French Canadians and British Canadians and make the Liberal Party a party where these two groups can coexist harmoniously.
Laurier is the first French-Canadian to serve as Prime Minister in Canadian history.
Interestingly, the Liberal Party of Canada has a close relationship with the Liberal Party of Southern Africa. The Liberal Party of Canada was founded in 1873. Its predecessor was the Reform Party of Upper and Lower Canada during the period when each province implemented a representative system from 1791 to 1840.
In 1854, the various political forces in the eastern and western parts of the Canadian province regrouped, and developed into the Liberal Party with the Grit Party in Western Canada and the Red Party in Eastern Canada as the core. After the establishment of the Dominion of Canada, the first autonomous government was formed by the Liberal Party.
While Arthur and Gavin were working to improve the status of Chinese Canadians, a meeting was being held at the Liberal Party headquarters in Ottawa. The main subject of the meeting was how to deal with the external threats that Canada is facing.
The "external threats" here include the United States and southern Africa.
"Speaker of the Southern African Parliament, Buck, threatened us at the Imperial Conference. If we do not cancel the discrimination against Chinese people in Canada, improve the social status of Chinese people, and protect the right to survival of Chinese people, then Southern Africa will retaliate against us. In
Prior to this, Buck clearly rejected Prime Minister Meen's request." King informed the senior Liberal Party leaders present at the meeting of the latest developments, and the conference room immediately went into an uproar.
"Didn't Lord Nyasaland already promise Sir Bowden?"
"Southern Africa has gone too far and is simply bullying others!"
"We should not be silent, we should complain to London about the behavior of southern Africa."
"Drive all those yellow monkeys out of Canada——"
Jin could turn a deaf ear to the previous words, but when the "yellow monkey" blurted them out, Jin's eyes immediately became stern.
"Gentlemen, be quiet. I just heard someone using the word 'yellow monkey'. I hope this is the last time." Jin is a smart man. He did propose a complete ban on the importation of Chinese immigrants before, but in
After clarifying the reaction in southern Africa, King had completely given up.
The fundamental reason why King targeted the Chinese was to win Canadian votes, not because the Chinese were angry and resentful.
Now, if Southern Africa is angered by targeting the Chinese, even if it succeeds in winning the position of prime minister, it will face even greater troubles.
Smart people know what to do.
"Ha, Jin, I remember that you used to be the most fiercely opposed to the Chinese. What? No longer completely banning the import of Chinese immigrants?"
"Oh, Mr. Cole, please understand. Chinese immigrants now have better places to go. They can go to southern Africa, the East Indies, and even Najd. No one will be stupid enough to come to Canada. In this case, why should we
Offended the Marquis of Nyasaland." Jin is very realistic. This is indeed the case. Starting about ten years ago, fewer and fewer Chinese immigrants came to Canada.
"Why are you all so afraid of the Marquis of Nyasaland? He is thousands of miles away, and this is Canada!" Cole said sadly and impassionedly.
"Cole, you haven't been to the Old World for a long time, right?" Someone asked quietly.
"So what?" Cole still doesn't know Roque's influence in Europe.
"Cole, you may not like the Marquis of Nyasaland, but you cannot ignore his influence. Let me tell you this, if the Marquis of Nyasaland is not willing, then Canada will not be able to get any help from the British Empire."
Jin was helpless. There were so many people sitting in wells looking at the sky.
"Hahahaha, it's a joke - the Marquis of Nyasaland is just a marquis, not a king -" Cole said without hesitation. As soon as he said this, most of the people present changed their faces.
"Cole, watch your words!"
"Did I said wrong thing?"
"You're like a stupid pig!"
"What the hell are you a pig? You should change your name to Leather——"
"That's enough!" Jin was furious and looked at Cole with an extremely cold look: "Cole, shut your mouth, don't force me to kick you out of the committee."
Cole's expression changed several times, but he finally closed his mouth with a livid face.
"This is the situation. The Marquis of Nyasaland's request is not excessive. He only needs to give the Chinese a normal social status. He does not put the interests of the Chinese above those of the British and French. Mr. Owen of the Southern African Liberal Party also sent me a message
I received a telegram, reminding us not to stimulate the pride of the Chinese in Southern Africa. Once I am elected as prime minister, I will revise all discriminatory provisions against the Chinese -" Jin has absolute say in the Liberal Party. When speaking, his eyes looked from the committee members one by one.
Scan across the face, who is in favor? Who is against?
The committee members sat at attention, no one said anything.
"——Now we move on to the next topic, how to deal with the threat from the United States." Jin quickly skipped. If the threat in southern Africa is the future, then the threat from the United States is now.
"If we improve the living environment of the Chinese, will the Marquis of Nyasaland send troops to help us?" Some people are worried that southern Africa is Canada's only life-saving straw now.
"It should be possible. Of course, we still need to fight for it. I have asked Mr. Owen to persuade the Marquis of Nyasaland. General Derek Dodd, Deputy Minister of Defense of Southern Africa, is visiting Mexico. London is also interested in entrusting the Bahamas to the management of Southern Africa.
Once southern Africa establishes military bases in Mexico or the Bahamas, our pressure will be greatly relieved." King did work for the Rockefeller Foundation, but that does not mean that King was bribed by the Americans.
When King was working for the Rockefeller Foundation, the World War was ongoing. At that time, the victory of the Allied Powers and the Central Powers was still undecided. It was normal for King to take the initiative to find potential partners for cooperation.
Now that the world war is over, southern Africa has shown strong economic strength and war potential. If Kim doesn't know what to do at this time, he is not a qualified leader.
Don't forget that King of another time and space is known as the most outstanding prime minister in Canadian history.
However, it is not easy for Southern Africa to set up military bases in Mexico or the Bahamas. The United States has always attached great importance to South America and regards South America as a taboo of the United States. This is just like the United States trying to interfere in the internal affairs of the Republic of Congo, which is absolutely not allowed in Southern Africa.
Of course, from the perspective of southern Africa, there are the first-year students in the United States and the fifteen-year-old students in southern Africa. The United States can intervene in the Republic of Congo, and then southern Africa can also intervene in Mexico or the Bahamas. It depends on whether the devil is superior or the Taoist.
One foot taller.
"That would be great if that's the case."
"We can also take out a piece of land and invite southern Africa to set up military bases!"
"Americans won't agree to that-"
"This is our internal affairs, why should the Americans interfere?"
"In fact, there is indeed a similar proposal in southern Africa to establish a military base somewhere on the Atlantic coast, preferably somewhere on the Nova Scotia Peninsula." King's news made the committee members extremely excited.
"Nova Scotia Peninsula? That's Halifax -" Someone immediately guessed the purpose of southern Africa.
Halifax is the provincial capital of Nova Scotia. Its strategic location is very important and it is known as the "Guardian of the North".
Halifax itself is a natural ice-free port. Before 1905, a British Army and Navy base was built there. After 2005, the British troops withdrew and Canadian troops stationed. However, considering the strength of the Canadian troops, the "Northern Guardian" is now also
In name only.
The Nova Scotia Peninsula is a very interesting place. If you just look at the place names, such as Sydney, Dartmouth, Enfield, Bedford, St. John, St. George, etc., you would never think that this is Canada.
"That's right, it's Halifax." Jin remained calm. He had another purpose in raising this issue.
The committee members are not stupid either. The guy who made such nonsense just now was severely scolded by Jin. At this time, everyone was very obedient and smart enough not to speak.
"Southern Africa will rent Halifax to build a military base on a lease basis. We do not need to bear the construction costs, but we will bear the cost of garrisoning the Southern African troops. The Ministry of National Defense of Southern Africa promises that this cost will not exceed
One million rand." Jin was also in a dilemma. These conditions sounded good, but he was afraid that it would be easier to invite God than to give away.
It's even more difficult for the committee members. Many of them don't even know the exchange ratio between the rand and the Canadian dollar. When Jin suddenly said this, everyone was a little confused.
One million is actually not much. If one million per year can ensure the safety of Canada, then it is definitely worth it.
"Since it's a rental, there must be rent -"
"Southern Africa is very wealthy. I heard that the annual military expenditure reaches more than 50 million. Can you order more?"
"Whatever you want, can you use the rent to offset the protection fee?"
"Hey, it sounds so ugly. Southern Africa and Canada are both British Commonwealth overseas autonomous territories. What kind of protection fees are there?"
The committee members were talking a lot, with Jin holding his chin in his hand and looking coldly.
At this time, shouldn't we discuss whether southern Africa should set up a military base in Halifax? However, a group of people are struggling with how much the annual rent and protection fees should be.
