Just because China has a population of 1.3bn, it doesn't mean it will win a conflict with Canada.
Israel, with it's population of 3m (at the time) managed to take down the whole Arab world (well over 200 million).
Also, flashbacks of Japan-China war of 1900 come to mind.
The Chinese don't have the most stellar record of warfare.
They're great when it comes to killing their own students or butchering Buddhists monks and nuns. They are still taught that they single handedly defeated the Chinese(Even the Taiwanese are taught this, people who were part of the Imperial Japanese Army).
