Canada could solve its housing and infrastructure crisis in a year with China’s 3D printing of buildings and rapid rail construction. Also, Canada is missing opportunities to process its raw resources before exporting - which China could also help with.
I also lived in US for extended period. Both Canada and US hv always had a decidedly white-, White-rights preferential pov. Recently it's become not what's right or wrong, but where you come from that determines decisions by groups. Corporations and govts.
Canada's approach to diversity is the same as that of the United Colors of Benetton. The diversity is a superficial facade in both cases.
Benetton's "edgy", diverse models paper over the hyper exploitation of industrial wage slaves in the global south. I argue that Canada sees diversity similarly.
Closer and mutually respectful ties with China and Africa are the obvious way to prepare for the future from a Canadian perspective, but Canada is an imperialist country. The people at the commanding heights of every major Canadian institution all think alike and any immigrants or 2nd gens who approach the commanding heights will be filtered out for orthodoxy before being allowed anywhere near power.
You'd may as well talk to a brick wall, because the Canadian state will be about as responsive to your thesis.

There are so many areas both country can benefit, let’s hope both leaders have the wisdom to do it
