In my experience, our Canadian government sells us out to China even more readily than the UK government has; but at least we're not Australia, which is (no joke) basically on the edge of becoming a dependent territory of the PRC. To me, as a dual citizen, it is mystifying that the U.S. is allowing this to happen; if the PRC compromises half of the commonwealth, that seems like a serious threat to the United States, and to human rights as a concept and reality.

I agree, but I had hope the Liberals would be under such intense pressure to ban Huawei that they’d be forced to, politically.
Eg With the liberals being just a minority, the majority of the Canadian parliament got together and recently passed legislation for and subsequently set up a committee to review Canada-China relations, on the backdrop of China holding our citizens hostage and extraordinary Chinese intervention into Canadian governments (federal, provincial and municipal).
But realistically I know better than to bet against a Trudeau selling out Canada.
