After broken trade ties between US and China, Canada has also walked away from the free trade talks with Beijing amid tensions over a Huawei executive's arrest and the detention of two Canadians by Beijing in a countermeasure. Canadian foreign minister Francois Philippe Champagne told the media that Canada was abandoning the free trade talks. "The China of 2020 is not the China of 2016," Champagne said.
