Odds are stacking against Huawei in Canada
Significance Meanwhile, China continues to pressure Canada to release detained Huawei executive Meng Wangzhou. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government has yet to decide whether to allow Huawei to build Canada’s 5G network. Impacts Canadian exports to China will suffer further as Beijing takes additional retaliatory measures. Trade overtures to China are dead for now; the economy will remain oriented towards US, European and Trans-Pacific Partnership countries. Ericsson and Nokia are well-placed to solidify their position in the Canadian as well as other Western markets.
