China 'opposed' to Canada congratulating Taiwan on its elections

The Chinese embassy in Canada said it was "strongly dissatisfied" and "firmly opposed" to the Canadian foreign ministry congratulating Taiwan on the conclusion of their presidential and parliamentary elections.

The embassy, the latest Chinese foreign mission to condemn their host country for congratulating the self-ruled island on its elections, also urged Canada to "recognise the highly sensitive nature of the Taiwan issue ... and immediately stop its 'wrong' words."
