Nothing seems out of the ordinary there. Those countries are all countries (or at least part of the countries) subject to economic sanctions, as far as I can tell.

My intent was to use the Wealthsimple card to obtain Chinese currency from an ATM. The ATM's I tried in China accepted the card and password. However, a message indicated that the transaction was not permitted. I did not try to use the card for purchases. My spouse used an Alipay account. Cash is not commonly used in China. Street vendors appear to prefer electronic payment. I was able to use my Rogers card to use the subway. There are glass doors on subway platforms in Beijing and Shanghai and the stop announcements and signs are in both Mandarin and English. It was quite the experience.
