Majority of Canadians oppose trading Meng for Kovrig and Spavor: Nanos survey

Additionally, the poll shows, Canadians want the federal government to be more aggressive in freeing Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor from their Chinese prisons, and believe the fate of Meng, a Huawei executive facing extradition to the United States on fraud charges, should be left to the courts.

The idea of a prisoner swap gained steam in late June after a spokesperson for China's foreign embassy suggested that Canada releasing Meng could affect the fates of Kovrig and Spavor. A group of 19 prominent former politicians and diplomats wrote Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on the same day, urging him to halt Meng's extradition proceeding in order to secure the release of the two Canadians.

Yea if Meng can get the fair justice instead of Canada being a puppet of US and do whatever US demanded. This is purely political!!!

TARIFFS. TARIFFS. MORE TARIFFS. Buy Canadian and screw the rest.

It is very unfortunate that we have come to a time where the media has no credibility. It is unfortunate because there will be a time when we need, we will require, that credibility and there will be none. That time is fast approaching.

No we don't

Exchanging Meng for the twomichaels would endanger every Canadian visiting or living in Asia. Want Canada to capitulate to your demands? Kidnap a couple of their citizens.

Meng should be handed over to the USA! She should be punished for her crimes! JustinTrudeau has done nothing for the 🇨🇦ins in China what makes you think he is gonna start now?Now if you were a convicted terrorist you would get $10.5 Mil. and are exempt from the no fly list!

principle ...... the legal process that has taken a persons freedom away has to be seen to conclusion

Good, if we hand her over we will never see the two Michaels ever again

Meng should be treated the same as China is treating the Canadians.

So how do they trade when they destroy the economy... when they export more than any nation on earth?

Never trust Chinese, their dream is to destroy the economy worldwide. Ban all Chinese products and close all the borders with Chinese.

Keep her in a Canadian jail until she is shipped to the USA

Stalemate continues

Its a bad trade and with the salary cap, the numbers just dont add up. Better to wait for the amateur draft if Canada wants to get better.

Put her in maximum confinement. Lights on and AC DC continuously playing dirty deeds done dirt cheap at 105 decipals.

Ship her to the US to answer for her crimes & let’s move on

Canada must stand their ground, if China abuses the human rights of any Canadian, hey I'd say it's fair game 2 use this Chinese woman in our custody as a pin cushion. Enough CTV = Corrupt TV

We never should have gotten involved with this case, but now that we have we cannot allow this to go sideways by 'trading' her for anyone or anything. Let this be a lesson for any future political traps the USA may set for us.

The CCP has a tendency to overestimate its influence and respect concerning Western countries.

rule of law, independent and free

This woman is trouble. Flush down the drain.

What if we give up Meng and then China says nope, we're keeping the Michaels

Not sure his surveys are ever accurate!! They always seem to favour Goverment agendas !

Get the Huawei spy out of Canada Ban Huawei and the rest of China crap. Get those men home ❤🇨🇦

What sickens me about this situation is that Canada was used by Trump to arrest Meng and hold her for extradition, so the Trump administration could use her as leverage in trade negotiations with China. Two innocent Canadians are paying the price for a psychopathic US President.

If this trading happen. Next time China want Canada to do something. Arrested more Canadian in China to make Canada corporate?

Fake survey imo

By all means give them back. That is, if you’re prepared to put a target on the back of every Canadian in China. Cuz you’ll have just taught China that that’s all they need to do to get us to play ball

Like hell, Over a year she has been detained. If US Could not prove overwhelming need to extradite her in one month then she should have been released. A YEAR AGO We are being used as a Proxy for sanctions that violate our laws. tell USA to put up Proof or shut up END THIS

Majority of what Canadians?

CCP hostages

Majority of Canadians? Who are you asking?

We should send her back to China. We should get our Canadians back we are doing trumps dirty work he would not do anything for Canada.

I'm sick & tired of her living in a multi million $$ condo. Put her in jail like the 2 Michaels.

Our law system is above anyone. That’s the major difference between us and them. But that’s also the point CCP can never understand.

Who are they polling?

That's a defective poll.

BS

Release her. Let Trump deal with this issue. Trump did not stand with Canada during our conflict with Saudi Arabia. Trump stood against our trade interests as well. Make some other trade deal with China + release of Canadian in China.

Sign more manufacturing contracts with India. Move manufacturing from China to India build them up like the free world did to Hong Kong.

Never polled me. Boot her out of her $10mm place in Vancouver. I wish I could be faced with house arrest in a mansion in Vancouver with no limits where I go cause I have tracking bracelet.

Why the hell can't the Supreme Court of BC get its act together and force the U.S. to present their case for Extradition. It is an abuse of process keeping her from family for 1.75 years while the lawyers figure out their golf tee times. SCBC move it!

What has the majority of opinion got to do with anything? Govts work for special interests & have no pride. For a few shekels & votes they back apartheid Israel. Kidnapping a Chinese exec to appease U.S. interests ( more shekels involved ) turns out to be a costly error. 💉🏃🍻

Canadian Security should put 6 Chinese spies in jail..then next month 6 more..then..

look her up or send her to uncle Sam.

Never should have done tRump's dirty work.

What a disgusting poll. Shameful.

EnemyOfThePeople

Is this how human rights works ?

Why has the us not collected her yet. This is years. Dump her in Michigan and end it.

What’s her she kinda bad tho

Of course, it establishes a precedent. Canada gives in to blackmail and negotiating with terrorists.

I think the opposite is true. We don't care about Trump's war on China.

Who did Nanos poll? Canadians are not that illogical. Meng is nothing to Canada, but our two innocent citizens are worth supreme effort to free.

Canada doesn't have to do America's biddings for them. Let us try to free our fellow Canadians, our way.

Put her in a jail cell with one light bulb on 24 hours per day.Give her a phone so she can call daddy and cry big millionaire tears.Pipe in Rob Zombie music all day long.We may get things moving in the right direction.

village_whisper How about treating Meng the way the CCP treated our two Michaels, eg small dirty rotting cell.

who are the majority. I would trade. None of them are terrorists.

Let's ask the guy's in jail what they think.

Hand her over to the US. End the charade.

BANHUAWEI

An investigation determined she may have broken the law, a valid request was submitted for her to be extradited, her counsel filed an objection, that objection was overturned, time for the extradition hearing and if its deemed warranted, she will be sent to the US

Yes with so many fatalities, the sad place is hell, thats this Presidents definition of a good place-:))

Why is she not in prison like our Canadians in China. Living in a luxurious home while our Canadian men are probably in decrepit conditions, Put her in prison until the Americans come & get her, cause you know Trump is going to keep her here for bargaining with China.

This may not be popular but give her back. Our men need to come home. The US can fight it's own war. I am sick of being the butt buddy of the US.

Yap. She is extremely important for the case they have against her.

If all governments worldwide had habeous corpus we would not need to trade. We shouldn't as that would cause future problems. When will China wake up and start playing fair

Why in my 52 years have I NEVER been part of one these polls?

Return her to China and cancel any all contacts with their mobile service. Get rid of the phones, tablets they flooded the market with. Ban them from Canada.

I thought she was supposed to be handed over to America by now?

At least put her behind bars to give her a taste of what our guys are going through.

Also, at this point if we do not ban Huawei from bidding on 5G infrastructure and address CCP meddling through proxies such as chinese student groups in universities soon it will be a shame.
