Foreign Affairs Minister M茅lanie Joly is warning businesses against deepening their ties with China as part of a long-anticipated Indo-Pacific strategy which she says is coming by early December.

In a Wednesday morning speech, Joly said Canada seeks deeper ties with more democratic, reliable countries such as India.

91裸聊视频淭he tectonic plates of the world91裸聊视频檚 power structures are moving,91裸聊视频� Joly told the Munk School of Global Affairs at the University of Toronto. 91裸聊视频淐anada ought to be clear about how we intend not just to engage, but to lead.91裸聊视频�

Canada91裸聊视频檚 foreign service will be tasked with training more China experts and placing them in 91裸聊视频渒ey embassies91裸聊视频� around the world.

91裸聊视频淭his will become a focus of our diplomatic effort,91裸聊视频� Joly said.

She said China is increasingly diverging from Canadian values, and so businesses operating in that country face risks of political interference and the violation of trade rules.

91裸聊视频淐hina is an increasingly disruptive global power,91裸聊视频� Joly said.

She said Canada can work with China on issues like climate change and will continue trade, but has serious concerns about Beijing undermining global security, commerce and peace.

91裸聊视频淐anada will not apologize for its national interests. We won91裸聊视频檛 be sorry for seeking to uphold the global rules that govern international trade, international human rights,91裸聊视频� she said.

Part of that includes 91裸聊视频渃redible accounts of human rights abuse and crimes against humanity91裸聊视频� in the Xinjiang region against the Muslim minority known as the Uyghurs.

Joly also spoke of Canada91裸聊视频檚 current military presence in the region, and suggested there may be more focus on containing China91裸聊视频檚 maritime boundaries and disincentivizing an invasion of Taiwan.

The remarks represent a major pivot for the Liberals, who have generally tried to avoid hostile rhetoric about Beijing even as China arbitrarily detained Canadian nationals Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig for nearly three years.

91裸聊视频淲hat I would like to say to Canadians doing business in and with China: you need to be clear-eyed,91裸聊视频� Joly said, noting 91裸聊视频渢he geopolitical risks linked to doing business with the country.91裸聊视频�

The speech, which was sponsored by the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada, a government think tank, portends more federal spending on diplomatic missions.

91裸聊视频淲e must both deepen our existing friendships and seek new allies,91裸聊视频� Joly said, name-checking India.

91裸聊视频淲e must be at the table, step up our game, and increase our influence.91裸聊视频�

She said Canada offers natural resources, food and an 91裸聊视频渋nnovative spirit91裸聊视频� while acting as 91裸聊视频渁 stable democracy that welcomes talent from around the world.91裸聊视频�

Joly also said Wednesday she will launch the Indo-Pacific strategy within a month.

Business leaders and former diplomats have been pushing for the strategy, which the Liberals have promised at multiple points in recent years.

Joly unveiled five objectives for the policy, including peace, supply-chain resilience, human and women91裸聊视频檚 rights, climate change and deepening Canada91裸聊视频檚 global presence.

She will join Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on a trip to the region starting Thursday, with summits in Cambodia and Indonesia, but not his visit to Thailand.
