A Canadian lawmaker says he is stepping down from PM Trudeau’s party after a media report raised questions about his dealings with China.
Member of Parliament Hang Dong said the report quoting anonymous sources was an attack on his reputation and his loyalty to Canada. He said he will leave the Liberals and sit in Parliament as an independent lawmaker to avoid causing problems for the party.
Canadians Michael Kovrig, a former diplomat, and Michael Spavor, an entrepreneur, were arrested in China in December 2018 in what was widely seen as an attempt to pressure Canada into releasing Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer of Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies. She was arrested in Vancouver at the request of U.S. authorities. China, the U.S. and Canada completed a prisoner swap just over two years later.
