Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly told the House of Commons on May 4 that the federal government is assessing the possible “consequences” from Beijing that could arise if Canada expels a Chinese diplomat who targeted a Conservative MP and his family in 2021.
“What we’re doing right now, as a government, is we’re assessing the consequences that we'll be facing in case of diplomatic expulsion because there will be consequences,” she told the Commons Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs.
