Yes, there's the potential of that happening but unless you are
actively protesting the CCP it is unlikely they care enough to arrest
foreigners passing through the country. It's going to stir up more
trouble for no real benefit. This is more likely meant to give their
people in countries like Canada more authority (cover) to go after
Chinese citizens who live in Canada and are protesting the Chinese
government.
