Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland says the government is very concerned about a Canadian sentenced to death in China. The Canadian was convicted for being part of an international methamphetamine operation. The sentence is likely to further strain relations between Ottawa and Beijing, which have deteriorated since Canada arrested a Chinese tech executive last December at the request of the U.S. Since then, China has re-tried and sentenced another Canadian to death for drug smuggling, detained two Canadians and barred some Canadian canola exports.
