China will make it very painful for Canada if the latter does as the Americans dictate.
Stupid Canada. They are paying the price for doing the dirty work for Trump. Hundreds of millions in exports lost, two Canadians in jail for 17 months so far ...for what? The US won't make such economic sacrifices for Canada.
The US is going after Huawei because of economic insecurity; nothing to do with the law.
Mr. Pierucci draws a parallel between Alstom and Huawei, whose network technology has been called a security threat by Washington. “The country that leads the world in 5G technology will have a clear technological, economic and national-security advantage over other countries,” he said, pointing to a Feb. 6 speech by U.S. Attorney-General William Barr in which Mr. Barr said, “Our economic future is at stake. … The risk of losing the 5G struggle with China should vastly outweigh other considerations.”
Mr. Barr’s Department of Justice is in charge of the prosecution of Huawei and Ms. Meng.
“Those words coming out of the mouth of the U.S. Department of Commerce or Department of Defense or even the State Department could be understandable,” Mr. Pierucci said. “But coming out of the DOJ itself is genuinely concerning.”
