Translator’s Note: Interestingly, Canadian citizen Robert Schellenberg (a White man) received a number of trials for drug-smuggling – before being sentenced to death in 2019 (a sentence not yet carried-out). China-Canada relations became strained in 2018 (during the first Trump Administration), when Meng Wanzhou, Chief Financial Officer of Chinese Huawei was illegally detained in Vancouver at the request of the US government. China then arrested two Canadian citizens. Meng Wanshou and the two Canadians were both released in 2021. Meanwhile, Canada has built monuments to Ukraine’s SS Units that murdered millions in the USSR during WWII – and has continuously opposed a UN Resolution “condemning” the glorification of Neo-Nazism. Furthermore, Canada has fully supported the Neo-Nazi regime of Ukraine – and the ongoing Israeli-inflicted “Genocide” in Gaza! When it comes to supporting death and destruction on a global-scale, Canada has much to answer for – and given the extent of routine anti-China racism in Canada – these protests from Ottawa should be taken with a pinch of salt, whilst the Canadians contemplate the prospect of losing their sovereignty and becoming the 51st State of the US.

On March 20, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning hosted a regular press conference. AFP reporter asked that Canada “condemned” China today for executing four Canadian citizens earlier this year, mainly for drug crimes. Can China provide more details? And what is your comment on Canada’s protest? Mao Ning profile picture. Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs website Mao Ning said that combating drug crimes is the common responsibility of all countries. China is a country ruled by law. It treats defendants of different nationalities equally, strictly handles them in accordance with the law, and protects the legitimate rights of the parties and the consular rights of Canada in accordance with the law. “Canada should respect the spirit of the rule of law and stop interfering in China’s judicial sovereignty.” Mao Ning said.

毛宁表示，打击毒品犯罪是各国共同的责任。中国是法治国家，对不同国籍的被告人一视同仁，严格依法公正处理，依法保障当事人的合法权利和加拿大方面的领事权利。
“加方应当尊重法治精神，停止干涉中国的司法主权。”毛宁说。
