While mainstream media reporters cover the international-relations rift opened up by the arrest of Chinese Tech giant Huawei’s CFO, Meng Wanzhou, Canadian multilingual and multicultural sources have also been reporting on the story. Unsurprisingly, of the 56 stories reported and collected by MIREMS consultants from December 1 to December 10, more than half—30—of the stories came from Chinese sources. Followed by Mandarin with 10 and Cantonese with seven. Chinese: "Canada's arrest of Huawei's Meng Wanzhou" Sing Tao Vancouver reports: At the request of the United States, Canada arrested Meng Wanzhou, Chief Financial Officer of China's Huawei Technologies. Stephanie Carvin of Carleton University said that as a result of the arrest, China may take innocent Canadians hostage for its own purposes, so Canadian business leaders in China should leave that country right now.
