Here is how it will work Justine & Libs will go along kissing the USA $$ plus he likes China Meng will walk away & back to her Daddy in China Canada will have paid MILLIONS of Dollars $$$ in costs for her case & NEITHER of 2 Canadian hostages freed 👆

The ‘Michael’s’ need to be released. And how about those millions Canada spent trying Wanzhou in our law courts on behalf of the US?

Canada be like: suprise Pikachu face.

So at the end, it’s all about politics

What kind of justice system is this? Syria? North Korea?

hkdemonow Fake news

This deal is absolutely unacceptable unless MichaelKovrig & MichaelSpavor are returned to Canada, TheJusticeDept.

The deal shouldn't be contingent upon 'admit[ting] wrongdoing' insofar as she has violated no Canadian law. Unilateral US trade sanctions are not Canadian law. Yankee go home.

Never should let her in bail and leave the country.

Deportation back to China 🇨🇳. China best release the two innocent Canadian men to hone Canada 🇨🇦.

Let her go home already. No one cares about this billionaire. Move on. More important BS to worry about

HUAWEI MENG is a intellectual thief , stealing & selling intellectual property for China 🇨🇳.

HUAWEI MENG has done wrong with 5G Network 5X Gigi bytes 5X cost into the new Apple IPhone Company & NORTEL Company in Canada 🇨🇦 and the United States 🇺🇸. This 5G network of communism production amid the Coronavirus / COVID-19 . Send MENG back to China .

The Chinese must also release both Michaels as part of any deal.

Trump is leaving and the US needs to solve this hostage taking thingy without losing face. The best way forward is to bully the hostage one last time in admitting wrongdoings that doesn't exist in the first place.

AJBraden Does Canada get its two hostages back as part of the deal? Maybe, since Trudeau is a paying client of the DNC, he can ask Biden nicely to throw us a bone.

Why admit something that didn't happen? Are you insulting the Intelligence of Chinese people by playing tricks on children?

Canada: where am i? What should i do? How about the judicial independence of Canada ? Am i a state of US ?

Legally be able to kill your unborn baby while the U.S. wages a war on free choice. [you can kill YOUR kid, but could you stop fucking with my dreams?]
