    Share a Coke. You Xiaorong, a Chinese-born scientist, was arrested and accused of stealing trade secrets from Coca-Cola. The naturalized U.S. citizen allegedly tried to pass knowledge about chemical coatings - for drinks cans - to a Chinese venture. An indictment against You claimed she sought backing from China's "Thousand Talents" recruitment scheme, which a member of the Justice Department describes as a ploy to "solicit and reward the theft of our nation's trade secrets."

    Coke Conspiracy

    A Chinese-born engineer has been charged by U.S. authorities with attempted theft of trade secrets from companies that were working with Coca-Cola on new coatings for the insides of drinks cans. You Xiaorong was apparently going to set up a rival venture in China with state backing. South China Morning Post

    So far, the U.S. Department of Commerce has excluded about 40 per cent of imports of Chinese steel from facing its 25 per cent tariff. But to date, only two per cent of the total volume of Canadian steel imports to the U.S. has been cleared to dodge the tariff.
    The head-scratching discrepancy gets even stranger with the United States' 10 per cent tariff on aluminum imports. About 86 per cent of Chinese aluminum imports now enter the U.S. tariff-free, while less than one per cent of Canadian aluminum shipments do

    Priceless...
