Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he’s frustrated China doesn't understand the rule of law and continues to imprison Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor.
Trudeau says China is only hurting itself by using such coercive diplomacy by arbitrarily detaining the pair.
Kovrig and Spavor were arrested December 10th, 2018 and eventually charged with violating China's national security, which Canada and its allies have reject as trumped-up charges.
They say China is retaliating for the arrest by Canada of a Chinese high-tech executive on an American extradition request.
Huawei's Meng Wanzhou is still under house arrest in Vancouver.
