Canada Won't Tolerate China's Interference In Affairs, Says Minister

Canada's Foreign Minister Melanie Joly has said that Canada will not tolerate interference in its affairs.

In a recent encounter at a G-20 meeting in India on Friday, Joly told her Chinese counterpart Qin Gang that her country will never tolerate any foreign interference in its internal affairs.

"Canada will never tolerate any form of foreign interference in our democracy and internal affairs by China.

"We will never accept any breach of our territorial integrity and sovereignty."

Joly added; "We will never accept any breach by Chinese diplomats of the Vienna Convention on Canada's soil."

Earlier on Friday, Qin had rejected allegations that Chinese Embassies and Consulates in Canada were trying to interfere in Canadian elections.
