MENG DETENTION DERAILS TRADE MISSION TO CHINA

The detention of a top Huawei executive in Canada has derailed British Columbia’s trade mission to China. The delegation led by B.C. Forestry Minister Doug Donaldson will no longer be stopping in China, and will instead end its trip after a visit to Japan. The decision follows the arrest of Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou, who was detained while changing flights last week in Vancouver.
