2月7日晚，加拿大驻华大使馆在官方网站发表声明，表示“对使馆人员私人定制使用印制有武汉字样和一流行嘻哈团体标志的T恤衫而冒犯了中国公众情绪表示由衷遗憾。这些T恤的制作不为发表任何政治或其他声明，对由此可能引起的冒犯，我们感到遗憾。”

The Canadian embassy on Sunday issued a statement saying that the embassy wanted to convey sincere regret that the incident "offended public sentiment in China."

"These T-shirts were not produced to make any statement, political or otherwise, and we regret the offence they may have caused," the statement said.
