Opposition legislators hand PM Justin Trudeau 1st defeat since reelection by going against his wishes in Beijing dispute. FMTNews Canada

OTTAWA: Canadian legislators on Tuesday delivered Prime Minister Justin Trudeau his first parliamentary defeat since his reelection by approving the creation of a special committee to examine relations with China, which is locked in a dispute with Ottawa.

Canada-China ties turned icy a year ago after Vancouver police detained Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou on a US arrest warrant. Shortly afterwards, China picked up two Canadian citizens who now face state security charges, and it also blocked imports of canola seed. “This committee will help shed light on Justin Trudeau’s failures to stand up for Canadian interests with respect to Beijing,” Conservative foreign affairs spokesman Erin O’Toole said in a statement.
