#Canada is calling on #China to immediately release two citizens it claims were arbitrarily detained there, just days after the arrest of a high-profile Chinese businesswoman. Ottawa is working to secure the pair’s release and is concerned about the 'worrying precedent' the detentions set, according to Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister #ChrystiaFreeland. #MichaelKovrig, a diplomat on leave from his post in Hong Kong, and #MichaelSpavor, an entrepreneur who helped organize tourist trips to North Korea, were seized nine days after #Huawei’s #MengWanzhou was taken into custody. Meng’s now out on bail pending an extradition hearing.

Beijing on Friday (Dec 14) continued to vent its fury at #Canada over the arrest of Chinese tech executive Sabrina #MengWanzhou at the request of the US, saying it has caused 'public anger' in China. Meanwhile, Canada said it had raised the case of detained businessman #MichaelSpavor 'directly with the Chinese authorities', as efforts continue for his release and that of former diplomat #MichaelKovrig - both of whom are being investigated by #China’s intelligence agency for allegedly endangering #nationalsecurity.

The decision to arrest Meng to aid a #US extradition effort has made Canada the focus of China’s ire, even as US President Donald #Trump’s #tradewar sits at the centre of the dispute. Chinese consumers have called for Canadian goods to be boycotted, iPhones to be thrown away and #Huawei handsets bought instead.

'Kill the chickens, scare the monkey'. This week, #Canada learned it is the chicken in the Chinese proverb. #China has taken not just one but two Canadian citizens "hostage", in the words of one experienced China watcher, the Lowy Institute's Richard McGregor. Mr McGregor said this was a reprisal for the arrest of #MengWanzhou, a powerful #Huawei executive recently detained in Canada, pending extradition to the #US.

Former Canadian ambassador to China, Guy Saint-Jacques believes Beijing wants to send a clear message to the #UnitedStates. In 2014, as Canada's ambassador in Beijing, Mr Saint-Jacques had to deal with an almost identical situation to the Mr Kovrig arrest. A Chinese national, Su Bin, was arrested in Canada on a US warrant accusing him of spying, so the Chinese arrested a Canadian missionary couple, Kevin and Julia Garratt, in response.

Two Canadians are being investigated in China on suspicion of "activities that endangered China's national security."

Is this an act of retaliation for the Huawei case?

That's the lead. News Stream. 9p Beijing. 1p London. 8a Washington DC & Ottawa. See you soon.
