Rajeev Suri, Nokia's president and chief executive, speaks during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain on Feb. 25, 2018.As telecom equipment maker Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. faces questions about the cybersecurity risks of its 5G technology, one of its main rivals is pitching itself to Canadian buyers as a security-focused alternative.
For their 3G and LTE radio networks, BCE Inc. and Telus Corp., Canada’s second and third-largest carriers both worked extensively with Huawei. But with the Chinese company’s future in Canada uncertain as the federal government conducts a cybersecurity review of 5G technology, neither BCE nor Telus has decided on a 5G vendor.
Ric Herald, president of Nokia Canada, said he doesn’t “spend any time thinking about the Huawei situation, because to me it’s not something I can influence or decide,” adding that it will be up to the government to determine whether Huawei can continue to sell 5G radio equipment as it has done for earlier network generations.
At its own innovation showcase and media day earlier this month, Huawei Canada’s chief security officer Olivera Zatezalo insisted that the company’s equipment is safe.
