The United States’ recent warning to Germany and other countries that they can expect less intelligence sharing if they allow Huawei into their 5G network is also a caution directed at Canada, says a veteran intelligence expert.
“I think the cautions offered by the U.S. ambassador to Germany and others concerning Huawei and the 5G network are the most immediate of warnings to Canada about our country’s prospects vis-à-vis Canada-U.S. relations,” said David Harris, a lawyer and 30-year veteran of national security and intelligence affairs. He is currently the director of the International Intelligence Program of INSIGNIS Strategic Research.
