rdmo83 What you should be saying is that Canada, the US and China all operate under the law of the rulers not the rule of law.

@rogerc23 Canada did not arrest the CFO for Canadian law violations but only on request of the US government. At most they will extradite her to the US for prosecution after a Canadian court circus. The US executes accused murders after trials not foreign company executives convicted of violating US third party trade laws. The rest of the world doesn't like the US government telling them who their companies can and can not do business with. The US government has ways to twist the arms of those who don't go along with US foreign policy up to and including war.

@chanszenge I'm opposed to capital punishment but unless this guy claims actual innocence which given previous convictions won't have the same creditably that someone not previously convicted would have I don't give him much of a chance for surviving the next 10 days.

@mmc6172 China doesn't need to execute criminals despite having the same right claimed by the United States to do so. The Canadian government needs an excuse to extradite a Chinese Business executive for violating US third party foreign trade law. China could ask for a list of Canadian war criminals wanted by North Korea for atrocities committed on orders of US commanders from 1950 to 1953. North Korea would guarantee fair trial for Canadian war criminals just like the US would for Chinese business executives. Nothing political North Korea just want to hold fair trials for war criminals.

We understand that China is a sovereign country like the Korea's. That it rightly kicked out imperialist powers from China after WW2. That General Mac Arthur talked of attacking China's cities with nuclear weapons and creating a no mans land with nuclear weapons at the Yalu river. No one wants nuclear war, except those who dream of unlimited power and in the end building more nuclear bombs will not make the world safer. Kennedy's military advisers told him to launch a first strike on the Soviet Union and Cuba. Kennedy said no. The US playing world policeman is what drives the building of more nuclear weapons by small countries seeking sovereignty. US has over 7,000 nuclear weapons with the Russian's close behind. Just as the US of 1877 is not the same as the US of 2019. The China of 1949 is not the same China of 2019. What China does inside China is China's business but when Chinese businessmen invest in foreign nations and China starts building aircraft carriers one begins to wonder if China is not seeking to be a new Imperialist Power?

rdmo83 China is a sovereign nation capable of dealing with any Chinese problems. The US has no business talking about human rights when 1/2 million people are homeless in the US despite empty apartments and hotel rooms. We have the largest gulag system and Trump wants to enlarge it so refugees can be held in family jails which the rest of the world will correctly call concentration camps. Henry Kissinger should be tried as a war criminal right here in the United States along with a list to long to fit into a small comment. Once his sentence is finished here he should be shipped off to Vietnam if they want him to stand trial there.

Certainly its linked to the Huawei case. Trudeau needs a reason to enforce US foreign policy in Canada without looking like a Canadian stooge of the Trump administration. Until Trump came into office the Iran nuclear deal was finished as far as the EU Canada and the rest of the world was concerned. Huawei has also be told that any 5G equipment it builds will not be sold in the US/UK, Australia and New Zealand with threats to national security being raised as an excuse to keep China out of their markets. Canada as an addition 10% of the US by population under a crown government set up by the British Empire is expected to follow suite but has yet to announce its marriage plans.

@captiveexile2670 America won't let Canadian citizens with Canadian felony convictions in without getting a special visa. The same goes for US citizen's trying to enter Canada. The Russian Stalinist's deported Solzehnitsyn for the same reason they deported Trotsky. Truth hurts the Party of Kulaks, NEPman and bureaucrats.

rdmo83 The capitalist rule through their two parties. The number of elected Congressmen and Senators out of 535 not elected by those parties and their campaign funding is no more than 5. The Judiciary is appointed by the President with the consent of the Senate. All of the Supreme court members are trusted and tested grads of either Harvard or Yale law school. The judiciary is independent of the people since judges are seldom removed except for blatant corruption.

@aliexsimth4980 If the Huawei executive had not been arrested the Canadian government would be issuing a standard protest in a diplomatic note and then forgetting who the guy was just as the American government would do.

@alex19790822 This is more of a case where Canada seems to be looking for an excuse not to dismiss the US request for extradition on an alleged violation of US foreign policy law. Trudeau gets to be a national hero by making this guy into a martyr for Canada and sending the Huawei executive for trial by the international policeman located in Washington as any friend of democracy would do.

Pure Mrax Canada is part of the United States under a crown government set up by the British Empire in London.

@fckstreetshitters4294 Canada can dismiss the the extradition request with a decision that as a sovereign nation or as part of the British Empire it is not responsible for enforcing third party foreign trade laws enacted by the US government or the RCMP can hand her over to US Border patrol at a port of entry as gesture of subservience to Washington's role of International policeman.
