Canada is somewhat similar to the previous Australia under Scott Morrison - most of these shiit stirring actions are actually not targeted at China, but for domestic election purposes.
No matter the topic at hand, the underlying theme is always the same - to sell to the general Canadian voters that Canada is some sort of world power at the forefront of a geopolitical struggle.
From a strategic point of view, it's a laughable idea that the Chinese government will expend political capital and mobilize its security apparatus to deal with a never head before MP from an inconsequential country like Canada. This case is very similar to Trudeau spinning a 5 minute hi bye chat with Xi at the corridor into some sort of gungho Canadian heroism.
The problem facing many of these hardcore US allied countries who perform such stunts is the strategic competition between US and China is a vie for influence in the rest of the world amongst ruling elites such as national leaders, seasoned senior bureaucrats, high level think tanks and senior executives of top corporations. Such common election campaigning stunts not only look very childish in the eyes of the elites, they erode whatever confidence left as it will most likely be seen as a mark of desperation.
US and its close allies are competing with China as if they are running for internal elections, i.e. shoot out sexy soundbites, perform a few inconsequential stunts and have the media sensationalize them, photo-ops military equipment, invent sexy acronyms for all sorts of small groups etc. These are actions useful when dealing with a largely ignorant and/or apathic masses, but are totally ill-suited when it comes to geopolitics and foreign policy.

What has ID got to do with blood? Which hospital you went to change your blood to Han? Did you tell your grandpa before he died about the blood transfusion?
