Poll finds most Canadians want Huawei barred from the country's 5G networks
VANCOUVER -- A new survey says Canadian public opinion is solidly against allowing Huawei as a supplier for the new generation of ultra-fast wireless networks that are being built by the country's telecommunications companies.
An Angus Reid online poll published Wednesday says 69 per cent of respondents were against the federal government allowing the Chinese telecom equipment maker from being involved in Canada's fifth-generation wireless networks.
The survey also found that 66 per cent of respondents had a negative view of China, up from 51 per cent in 2018.
The poll comes as the United States continues long-standing efforts to convince its allies such as Canada to bar Huawei as a threat to national security because of the Chinese government's influence.
The U.S. warns China could require the company to gather sensitive information flowing through its equipment, an allegation that Huawei says is unproven and against the company's business interests.
Angus Reid said 43 per cent of 1,499 respondents polled in November said Huawei definitely shouldn't be allowed into Canada's 5G networks and 25 per cent who said it probably shouldn't be allowed.

And in related news::::
Here is an article illustrating that Cdns are increasingly rejecting the CBC propaganda!!
With some comments of my own in brackets):
CBC TV sees sharp decline in ad revenues: Report
From Sun Media

A shrinking CBC television audience has left the CBC with plunging advertising revenues, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
In the first six months of 2019, the CBC generated advertising revenues of $90.9 million, according to the public broadcaster’s second-quarter financial report. That is slightly less than the $92.8 million the broadcaster collected in ad revenue during the same time frame in 2017.
However, the amount the CBC collected from ad sales plunged 53% during the last five years. The Crown corporation raked in $192.2 million in the first six months of 2014.
(Sadly the CBC - our Communist Broadcasting Corp has finally and fully lost its way!! The Commissars lack the power to force us to watch their stuff - and for a variety of reasons they refuse to produce stuff that we will voluntarily watch!!!!!!)
The CBC revealed its local suppertime TV newscasts nationwide have seen a sharp decline, dropping 14% last year to an average of just 269,000 viewers.
(This drop in news viewers is a reflection of public disgust at the strong CBC focus on promoting LIE-beral values at every turn!! After the 2015 election - CBC was accused of using a deliberately biased version of “fair use” to censor any comment that showed Conservatives in a positive light!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(Fair use policy carefully removes political commentary from the usual copyright laws - so that detailed discussion of important national political matters may be examined in full detail - thus if Our idiot Boy Justin tells us that “budgets will balance themselves” - Conservatives may use that statement to illustrate the stupidity of the LIE-beral leader!! Yet CBC poohbahs DEPLORE that fair use policy and drove it into the ground in 2015 as they promoted LIE-berals!!!!!!!!!)
(And in 2019 - during the recent election - CBC SUED Conservatives for using CBC video taped material in a 17 second online ad - yet another CBC VIOLATION of fair use policy and a waste of tax money as well - to pay for the bigoted and wrong CBC attack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Michel Bissonnette, executive vice-president of the network’s Radio Canada French-language service, testified at the Commons heritage committee in May that managing the CBC “requires visionary talent” when revenues decline while juggling their mandate to serve all Canadians.
(Uh huh- the truth is that CBC has violated our trust by refusing to play fair -and instead has become the official tax payer funded MOUTHPIECE and propaganda arm of the LIE-beral Party!! No wonder Cdns are tuning out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
“I often joke it is easier to manage growth than downsizing,” Bissonnette said at the hearing. “Unfortunately we are in a downsizing environment, and we have to maintain our services for all Canadians.”
(Yes - ALL Cdn news media is suffering from reduced revenues - but CBC is hurting most of all simply because of its LIE-beral values and ideological commitments!! Attempting to promote LIE-beral values regardless of logic and publicly known truth COSTS CBC viewers!! Thus promoting things like multi culturalism and an “inclusive society” while most Cdns are opposed to open borders and the hordes of undocumented illegals that are DEMANDING our charity also costs CBC viewers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
The broadcaster announced 35 jobs were cut at its Toronto headquarters last month.
(Since CBC is notorious in Cdn media circles for sending three people to do the job of one - that loss of 35 jobs will hardly be noticed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
The corporation receives $1.2 billion annually from the Canadian government.
(CBC can only save itself if it becomes a MUCH MORE HONEST BROKER and a determined presenter of HONEST FACTS!! CBC must drop its role as LIE-beral propaganda mouthpiece - or DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
