I cannot imagine the shock and concern of learning that your loved ones have been targeted in this way."Beijing denounced the accusations on Friday.Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said: "China is strongly dissatisfied with Canada's groundless slander and defamation of the normal performance of duties by the Chinese embassy and consulates in Canada and firmly opposes it."Citing a classified report from Canada's spy agency, The Globe and Mail newspaper recently sought information about any relatives of a Canadian legislator "who may be located" within its borders, in a likely effort to "make an example of this MP and deter others" from taking anti-China positions, according to Al Jazeera.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
