Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he hopes to share a decision on whether to ban Huawei Technologies from Canada’s 5G wireless network rollout “in the coming weeks.”
Canada is the only remaining member of the Five Eyes intelligence alliance to have not banned or restricted Huawei from partaking in the implementation of the network.
Former diplomats and international security experts have speculated that the federal government was holding off on making a decision because of the uncertain fate of Spavor and Kovrig and that banning the telecommunications giant outright might make an already charged situation worse.
Now that the two men are free, the Liberals will face heightened pressure.
