Canada-China relations remain stable, with the Tension Index dropping to 1.9/10. Bilateral trade figures for November 2025 show a slight increase, with Canada's exports to China reaching $4.0B CAD and imports from China totaling $7.3B CAD, resulting in a trade deficit of $3.3B CAD.

Despite the overall low tension, several high-profile signals emerged today. China expressed strong opposition to foreign criticism of Hong Kong, particularly in the context of the Jimmy Lai case. Additionally, China's disinformation machinery targeted the Dalai Lama, employing the Epstein Files as a tool in its information war.
