OTTAWA/WASHINGTON — Chinese Ambassador Cong Peiwu on Thursday denied a Beijing official targeted a Canadian lawmaker and his family for his anti\u002DChina stance…
Canada’s Foreign Minister Melanie Joly earlier said she was “assessing different options including the expulsion of diplomats.”
Canada’s Globe and Mail newspaper, citing a Canadian intelligence report from 2021, on Monday said China sought information about Chong and his family in China in a likely effort to “make an example” of him and “deter others from taking anti-PRC position,” using an acronym for China’s official name. “China strongly urges the Canadian side to immediately stop this self-directed political farce,” Cong said in a statement posted on the embassy’s website, adding Canada should “not go further down the wrong and dangerous path.”
