As Paul alluded to earlier in his opening statement, the health and well-being of Canadians in China is top of mind and of utmost importance to the Government of Canada. We provide consular assistance to Canadian individuals and their families seeking support in China.
As each consular case is unique, a tailored approach is often required, and consular officials must adapt interventions to each local context and circumstance. These include advocacy efforts for the detainees' well-being and their fair and equal treatment under local laws, as well as for access to medical care and basic nutrition.
