Is causing another feud between China and Canada

Welcome to China Uncensored, I'm Chris Chappell.

Canada and China are feuding yet again—this time over the Wu Tang Clan.

First—I really hope you all remember the Wu Tang Clan, otherwise I'll feel incredibly

But even if you don't remember them, all you need to know is they were a hip hop group

Actually you don't need to know that either.

All you really need to know is that this was their symbol.

Now, a Canadian diplomat in China ordered custom t-shirts that had *this* symbol on

Wu Tang is replaced with Wuhan, the city in China.

In fact, the issue made it all the way to China's Foreign Ministry.

At a press conference on Monday, spokesman Wang Wenbin said China is, “shocked by this

and has lodged stern representations with the Canadian Embassy in China, demanding that

the Canadian side immediately thoroughly investigate the incident and give China a clear explanation.”

Why is the Chinese Communist Party freaking out about a t-shirt?

Well, it's because they think the symbol represents a bat.

Some scientists believe the coronavirus pandemic came from a bat and spread in Wuhan.

So the Communist Party is taking the t-shirt design as a swipe at China.

A Canadian official told Reuters that “The T-shirt logo designed by a member of the Embassy

shows a stylized W, and is not intended to represent a bat.

It was created for the team of Embassy staff working on repatriation of Canadians from

China's foreign ministry replied by saying that Canada's explanation was not convincing.

The guy who designed the t-shirt is Canadian diplomat Chad Hensler.

Or was he making a reference to the coronavirus, bats, and Wuhan? 

Well, former Canadian Ambassador to China David Mulroney jumped to Chad Hensler's

He tweeted, “I worked with Chad, who is smart, decent, dedicated.

Not his fault if China goes batty over the Wu-Tang Clan's logo.

Of course China-Canada relations aren't so hot right now.

At the end of 2018, Canada detained Meng Wanzhou the CFO of Huawei.

She's been charged with violating US sanctions on Iran.

The Chinese Communist Party responded by kidnapping two Canadians, Michael Kovrig and Michael

China has also made veiled threats to the 300,000 Canadians living in Hong Kong.

So China and Canada just do not get along.

And now I'll answer a question from one of you, a fan who supports China Uncensored

TallMan101 asks, “I don't understand using spiked clubs, don't they have guns?”

Ah, TallMan is talking about a deadly border clash between India and China back in June.

At least 20 Indian soldiers died and an unknown number of Chinese soldiers were killed. 

India accused Chinese soldiers of using nail-studded rods like this.

Well, India and China have actually fought a war over these border disputes.

In order to prevent escalations, both sides agreed that their troops on the border wouldn't

And so melee weapons apparently are in vogue.

“Indian commanders acknowledge that their soldiers, too, now carry hand weapons, like

Recently, there was yet another border fight.

Indian security officials told the Associated Press that there were clashes with sticks
