China have introduce very strict rules for NGO last year: http://www.chinafile.com/ngo/latest/fact-sheet-chinas-foreig...
Basically, a foreign NGO need to register with the government to continue their work in China.
Some of the NGO is still working on getting the approval. These two Canadians were working with one of those NGO.

>Can anyone point to some unbiased ... sources ...
"No", is the short answer.
You simply have to read the position of all sides, and then make your own decisions. Any source that people will point you to, is going to be biased in some fashion.

From a Canadian viewpoint, the CFO has not committed any crime. She was arrested at the request of the US, for fraud charges related to export restrictions. As far as I know, no exact charge has been specified, either in Canada or in the US.
In Canada she is attempting to prevent getting extradited.

it's fraud https://www.theverge.com/2018/12/7/18131188/huawei-cfo-fraud...
On the face of it the arrests read like blatent retaliation from China, but I'd like to know more about the full circumstances.
