China says to expel Canada’s top diplomat in Shanghai
China has expelled Canada’s consul in Shanghai, Jennifer Lynn Lalonde, in retaliation after Canada announced the expulsion of a Chinese diplomat.
The move deepens the diplomatic dispute between the two countries, following allegations of foreign interference and tensions over the arrest of a Huawei executive and the detention of two Canadians in China.
The situation adds further strain to already souring relations between Beijing and Ottawa.
