Canada Condemns Execution of Four Citizens in China

In a recent development, Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly has confirmed that China executed four Canadian citizens earlier this year. The individuals, who were dual citizens of Canada and China, faced charges related to drug-related crimes, according to Chinese authorities. The executions have sparked outrage in Canada, with Minister Joly strongly condemning the actions and expressing deep concern for the families of the victims.

Minister Joly revealed that both she and former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had personally appealed to the Chinese government for leniency in these cases. Despite these efforts, the executions proceeded, highlighting ongoing tensions between the two nations. The identities of the executed individuals have not been disclosed at the request of their families.

China's embassy in Ottawa defended the executions, citing solid evidence and adherence to Chinese law. However, Canada has reiterated its opposition to the death penalty, emphasizing its irreversible nature and inconsistency with basic human dignity.

This incident adds to the strained relationship between Canada and China, which has been marked by diplomatic challenges in recent years. The Canadian government continues to advocate for clemency for other citizens facing similar situations in China.
