China In Space

On the news this evening is the safe return to Earth of the two Chinese astronauts. Now I don't know how much that trip cost but I doubt you would get much change back from a billion dollars. Now what I want to know is why in the hell is my government sending aid money to China for?

64 million a year to be exact. The Chinese government must metaphorically piss their pants laughing when they cash that cheque. When will the Liberals wake up? Any country that decides to embark on a solo manned space program does not deserve a penny of Canadian taxpayers money.
