Canada Has To Decide Soon On Meng Issue VANCOUVER: The clock is ticking for Canada to decide whether to proceed with a high- profile extradition case involv- ing a senior executive of Huawei Technologies, which has touched off furor in diplomatic relations with China. A British Columbia court heard Tuesday that the United States has issued a formal extradition request for Meng Wanzhou, the company’s chief financial officer and daughter of its founder. Meng was arrested Dec. 1 at Vancouver’s airport on a request from U.S. authorities. Canada’s Department of Jus- tice has until March 1 to determine whether to issue an authority to proceed, which authorizes an extradition hearing. If Canada issues that authority, Meng would next appear in court March 6 and hearing dates would be set. B.C. Supreme Court Justice William Ehrcke said proceedings could still take some time. “I have no idea whether we’re looking at months or years,’’ he said. ``At this point, that’s completely unknown. It will become clearer as time progresses.’’ Canada has a treaty with the U.S. that obligates it to co-operate with extradition requests. The treaty requires that the conduct for which extradition is sought be considered criminal in both countries. If an extradition hearing is held and a judge commits Meng for extradition, Justice Minister David Lametti would ultimately determine whether she would be extradited to face charges of bank fraud, wire fraud and two counts of conspiracy to commit both. Speaking to reporters in Otta- wa, Lametti acknowledged legal procedures can be complex. www.WeeklyVoice.com national/World Friday, February 1, 2019 | A-5 Pro-Khalistani Protest In Washington Hindu Seers Fix Flops; Twitter Bans SFJ Account February 21 To Start Washington/New Del- shouting.
