OSAKA, Japan—Canada is fortunate to have assembled a “broad international coalition” of countries who support Canada and believe arbitrary detentions are harmful, Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland said Friday at the G20 summit in Osaka.

Freeland, who spoke to reporters alongside her cabinet colleague Finance Minister Bill Morneau, said the Chinese regime has been hearing about the detention of two Canadians from a range of countries, adding that efforts continue here at the summit.
