The bottom line is that Nuctech, viewed by the U.S. security establishment as the “Huawei of airport security”, has won five contracts supplying sensitive equipment to the Canadian government (Global News reported on Friday that it has also secured four border security and customs warehouse contracts valued at $6.5 million to supply the Canadian Border Services Agency).
Nuctech is wholly owned by a government that we know spies on us. If it is not our enemy, it is certainly not our friend.
The contracts were won on price alone, under-cutting local companies that are employing Canadians in good jobs at a time of high unemployment. It seems highly likely that the low bidding price was subsidized by the Chinese government as part of a deliberate strategy to buy market share and put western competitors out of business.
