I cited a direct NAFTA bylaw, that a product can be considered Mexican or Canadian if 50-60% of it is sourced from those countries, hence China doesn't need to be mentioned directly in the article. Take a trip to Vancouver sometime and tell me there isn't a large Chinese presence.

The fact you assume anyone you don't agree with or who provides information contrary to mainstream opinion a bot is the sign of a stunted mind.

This is not a substantive comment. The "large Chinese presence" in Vancouver is obviously not evidence of an obscure point about trade policy. It is, though, a step into dark insinuation. That's not ok here.

Worse, you went into personal attack. Since you've already been violating the site guidelines by using HN primarily for political battle (see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), I've banned this account.

If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email [email protected] and give us reason to believe that you'll use the site as intended in the future.

What does this have to do with anything?

Could do doesn't mean are doing.
