We all know China is lacking in human rights.   Therefore, a person who lives in China and of Chinese descent would know better than anyone what can land you in prison and what won't.
This nice lady broke their laws and is now in a Chinese prison and her family is now throwing her Canadian passport status around.
People who travel or live in another country should make themselves aware of the country's laws and learn to abide with them.
As a little guy growing up in the old country my father would poach her Majesty's deer so that my mother and three brothers could eat.  If he had been caught it would have been  an Automatic 6 months in Her Majesty's Barlinne Prison a days cruise and car ride away from the Island.
When I go home I know I should not even entertain the thought of poaching one of her Majesty's elegant Stags but they tasted so good.  Wonder if my Canadian passport would help me if I tried it even though I am a Dual citizen.
As usual Lefties scream racism.
