In the wake of the Huawei CFO scandal, SPPGA Professor Paul Evans outlines the potential impacts this event could have on Canada-China relations in The Globe and Mail op-ed, Canada Is Caught in the Middle of a China-U.S. Tech War. One misstep could jeopardize not only trade, he says, but also Canadian tech sector investments. For more on the trade war and “technical nationalism”, check out his interview on BBC News (Chinese only).
Professor Evans delves into worsening Canada – China tensions in interviews for CBC Radio, Globe and Mail, BBC Radio 5 (Starts at 14:18), CTV News, Voice of America, Global National Television, BNN Bloomberg, Tri-City News, the National Post, the BBC News (Chinese only), CGTN America, the Vancouver Courier.
Professor Evans also did a series of Chinese interviews for Fairchild TV (1, 2)(Cantonese only), Talentvision (Mandarin only), and Phoenix TV (Mandarin only) on the Meng Wanzhou affair.
Due to the tension between Canada and China, many Canadian post-secondary institutions fear that the crisis may prevent Chinese students from choosing to go to Canadian schools. Dr. Evans shares his thoughts on the topic with the Times Higher Education.
