- Carney says he will raise concerns about foreign interference/non-interference by China in Canada’s affairs.

Where coverage differs
The outlets broadly agree on the core details: Carney meets Xi at the Apec summit in China and raises foreign interference/non-interference concerns. South China Morning Post is the only one provided that adds specific supporting context from a 2025 public inquiry, describing allegations of election meddling and identifying China as a leading actor. Global News, City News Toronto, and Winnipeg Free Press stick to the meeting and Carney’s stated intention, without adding the inquiry detail. The framing also differs slightly in specificity: South China Morning Post links the issue explicitly to election meddling, while others describe it more generally as foreign interference.
