Mr. Speaker, diplomatic relations with China are in shambles and disarray. The foreign affairs minister even accused China of espionage in Canada.
Strong relations with China are vital to bilateral trade, to human rights and to terrorism, and is essential to the resolution of issues such as the imprisonment of Canadian citizen, Huseyin Celil. Relations with China must be returned to strengthened mutual respect.
What is the government doing to repair the enormous damage it has caused?
