OTTAWA — China’s second most powerful politician gifted Prime Minister Mark Carney a high-end “action camera” with a selfie stick during his visit last month. Security experts recommend Carney dump it immediately. Of particular note: China’s Premier Li Qiang, the second highest ranking political figure in the country, gifted Carney three things: a DJI-brand Osmo action camera, a “camera rod” (otherwise known as a selfie stick) and two bottles of Chinese ice wine.
