In anticipation of the second anniversary of her arrest, we co-hosted an online panel discussion to Free Meng Wanzhou, unjustly incarcerated by the Trudeau government at the request of the Trump Administration. You’ll learn more from Canadian experts about her legal case, deteriorating relations with China, and the rise of Sinophobia in Canada – plus what you can do about it.
Speakers include:
John Philpot, lawyer and expert in international criminal law
Atif Kubursi, Professor Emeritus of Economics, McMaster University
Niki Ashton, NDP MP for Churchill–Keewatinook Aski
Paul Manly, Green Party MP for Nanaimo–Ladysmith
Cathy Walker, retired trade union representative who participated in 15 trade union exchanges with China over 40 years
KJ Noh, veteran journalist, political analyst, educator, and peace activist specializing in the geopolitics of the Asia-Pacific
This event was hosted by the Canadian Foreign Policy Institute, the Canadian Peace Congress, Just Peace Advocates, the Hamilton Coalition To Stop The War, and World BEYOND War.
The Canada Files was the official media sponsor for this event.
This event included live French/English interpretation.
Also available on Facebook.
