No. That’s the Iran / Israel situation. World war 3 will start in the Middle East. Count on it.
I take it you are not being sarcastic. Businesses want to do business in China because it's so big. When will they learn? They end up with stolen I.P. and usually end up losing big money on the venture.
Proxy punishment... They'll arrest and sentence more Canadians to death.
Huawei is just another clandestine arm of the People's Army…. trying to infiltrate and destroy America.
I totally support the DoJ in this.

I wonder if Justin “I was a Mac but now I’m an Ascend” Long will continue to represent the enemy.
These treaties work both ways.
Isn't cutting the head of a criminal enterprise the goal of law enforcement? No point getting the tree-level dealers, when the kingpins get away, to continue business as usual.
They will sell a fantastic looking Apple clone - iPhone, MacBook, etc., - and all will be forgiven by those outraged here to buy them at 30-50% off.
Or a powerful politician's son will need his SouthEast Asian business to remain viable, and the USA will rush in to save 500,000 Chinese jobs - like it happened with ZTE, Drumpf and Ivanka; an axis of some kind!
Or like with Russia, the sanctions will be lifted at the whim of Drumpf due to conflicting interests.
Both ZTE and Huawei products are available for sale in the USA today, sleek looking devices.

Did you conveniently miss the "Huawei is said to have misled a global bank and U.S. authorities about its relationship with subsidiaries Skycom and Huawei Device USA to conduct business in Iran despite sanctions, conducting millions of dollars in business. Huawei is accused of lying to the government, destroying documents, and attempting to move key Huawei employees back to China to impede the investigation" part?

You mean it makes the Trudeau government look like they're refusing to be a pawn for China. China has been trying to economically exploit, manipulate, and steal technology from Canada for a while, and it's nice to see Trudeau finally address the problem. He even blocked a shady Chinese takeover of a Canadian company semi-recently on national security grounds.
Yes, that is how mutual extradition treaties work. Canada balks at extraditing some USA criminals who flee to Canada for specific reasons, some of them humanitarian conditions.
Nah. The original theory was ZTE, but it looks more like a financial institution from either Russia or Qatar. Both Russia and Qatar have state owned financial institutions who also hold US property and interests.
God forbid you'd appear to be on the side of the law abiding United States rather than bowing to these criminals. Wow.
Apple is shaddy as hell too. They straight up stole tech from Xerox in the 70s
Xerox was so hurt over it, too, that their business suffered for the decades to come.
Canada is looking more and more like the 258th province of China anyways. The Chinese have pretty much taken over Canada, from restaurants to every other business.
God forbid anyone should be judged innocent until proven guilty. Wow. And since when is the US "law abiding"? Do you know the horrible history of your country? Double Wow.

How do you know she is a "criminal"? And she didn't "flee" to Canada, she owns property in Vancouver.

Source for China trying to steal technology from Canada?
You’re really going to complain about what the US has done when the other country in question here is the country that brought the world the Cultural Revolution, the Great Leap Forward, Tiananmen Square, and is presently estimated to have anywhere from 1 to 3 million people in what are effectively concentration camps? Seriously? Seriously?!
People need to get a grip. The US isn’t innocent but people are treating China like its some benign little entity being picked on by the big bad USA. This is the second largest economy in the world we’re talking about here that has been documented to be responsible for the death of at least 100 million of its own people over the last century.

I would be far more shocked if it was ever discovered that there is a Chinese company which abides by all international trade regulations, engages in honest business practices with its compeators and consumers and fully complies with all copyright, trademark and patent laws.
The average Chinese citizen doesn’t even know what the rest of the world knows because the government blocks information from coming in. State run media, state run comapnies. Part of the very serious allegations is international bank fraud.
That would be called "whataboutism", "two wrongs don't make a right", and "one thing has nothing to do with the other".

Maybe you could explain how Communist Chinese banksters ripping off US companies is somehow good for those US companies.
