China’s foreign minister Wang Yi set to meet Carney, Anand today

Wang Yi will discuss trade, investment and security as human rights groups protest his first Canada visit in a decade, officials said.

  • Chinese Foreign Affairs Minister Wang Yi arrived in Ottawa on May 28 for a three-day visit to meet Prime Minister Mark Carney and Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand, marking the first such ministerial visit in a decade.
  • Prime Minister Mark Carney said diplomatic relations were "in need of a reset" after trade imbalances left Canada exporting $29.9 billion to China in 2024 while China exported $118.7 billion to Canada.
  • On Parliament Hill, human rights groups and Falun Dafa practitioners gathered on May 28 to protest, while international human rights lawyer David Matas called for designating involved diplomats as persona non grata.
  • More than 150 fake bomb threats have targeted Shen Yun performances over two years, while ATIP records show the Chinese Embassy previously pressured National Arts Centre officials to meet with the ambassador.
  • Wang and Anand are expected to discuss the updated Canada-China Strategic Partnership, trade, investment, and global security, building on a preliminary trade deal Carney reached with President Xi Jinping in January.
