Turning in the Time Language
On March 1, the Canadian Ministry of Justice announced the official launch of the extradition process of Meng Wanzhou.Meng Wanzhou's team of lawyers quickly counterclaimed that the Canadian government's arrest against Meng infringed on her constitutional rights.At the same time, Canada officials sang the high -profile judicial independence in this case.
Ironically, the Canadian federal government has fallen into a stronger political intervention judicial scandal in the past few weeks. The prime minister Trudeau himself was accused of intervention at the judicially.The opposition party even asked Trudeau to resign.From economists to important international media such as the Wall Street Journal, they all believe that the Trudeau administration faces a serious political crisis.
The scandal involves SNC-Lavalin, an Canadian engineering design contractor SNC (hereinafter referred to as Lanwan Ling Company), and bribed the fraud in Libya to obtain engineering projects.Not long ago, Jody Wilson-RayBould, who resigned from the cabinet, testified in Congress, claiming that she was appointed by the Minister of Justice and was under tremendous pressure from Trudeau and other important members.company.Wangzhou Di also pointed out that he was reduced to the Minister of Veterans Affairs in January, which was also related to this.Soon after testing, Trudeau's effort will also resign from Mdash; MDash; Chairman of the State Treasury Committee and Digital Government Minister, Jane Philpott, and publicly stated that the Lanwanling Company had lost confidence in the government.
From the testimony of the hearing, we can indeed see the case of Lanwanling's cases obviously suspected of political intervention.In Europe and the United States, the biggest politics is election politics.Wangzhou Di testified: Trudeau asked her to let Lan Ling Company a reason for one horse, if the company was sued, it would cause the company's Quebec province to lose thousands of work positions, which affected the Liberal Party in the province in the province.Selection.Trudeau not only emphasizes that he represents a Quebec constituency, but also specifically mentioned a local election.
This political crisis reflects the limitations of judicial independence principles in practical operation.Because many cases have unavoidable political influences, in order to protect their election benefits, the election government will inevitably use a large number of light and dark resources to intervene.The troubles that Trudeau encountered was that the incident involved the political interests of the Liberal Party in Quebec, East, but in the cabinet, the judicial minister selected by the West Coast was unwilling to merge, and finally stabbed the inside story.
From this scandal, you can also smell the strong political atmosphere of the Meng Wanzhou case.The prelude to the Meng case was that the Canadian government was under great pressure on the Trump administration.Except for the additional taxes to the US export steel, the New North American Free Trade Agreement that Canada has reached in Canada has not yet been approved by the US Congress.The former Canadian ambassador John McCallum publicly pointed out that the political factors of the Benne case actually represent the views of many people in the Liberal Party and many people in the Canada.After Mai Jialian was fried, the former Minister of Liberal Federal Federation came out to come out to make him up.
It is from the law itself that an important defect of the Meng Wanzhou extradition case is the principle of double crime, because the embargo against Iran is not a Canadian law.At this point, Washington may also emphasize that commercial fraud belongs to the common crime of the two countries.However, from the beginning, some experts pointed out that the Meng case violated the most basic principle of sin and punishment: in recent years, Washington has handled many cases that violate the Iranian embargo, all of which have been fined for civil fines for foreign companies or banks.There are no criminal proceedings against the company's executives like the Meng Case.
The Trudeau administration also inspired the direction of the Meng Wanzhou case due to the practice of the Emperor Wanling Company's case in election.When Canadian Foreign Minister Frelan was interviewed by the Radio on the Radio Corporation of Lan Wanling, while insisting on the Meng Wanzhou case was completely judicial independence.Contradictory.
It is even more important to be the Canadian election of this year, because the Trudeau government, which has been trapped in internal and external internal and external, will also be suffered from great political pressure brought by the election on the Meng Wanzhou case.This is because the basic voters of the Liberal Party belong to the middle left group and generally dislike the US Trump administration.The University of Toronto's constituency represented by Foreign Minister Frelan.The Canadian economy is not very prosperous, and the popularity of the Liberal Party has declined.The scandal of the Lanwanling Company was worse.
Trudeau has been playing minority cards and indigenous residents politically.Wangzhou Di was originally the first indigenous government minister of the Liberal Party's great rendering, making Trudeau greatly lost points among indigenous voters.Chinese immigrants have become important voters in Canada, especially in Vancouver and Greater Toronto.Therefore, the two federal ministers who resigned in the case of the Lan Wanling Company Wangzhou Di (from Vancouver) and Ferpu (Duorun Dorang) have Chinese names.The impact of the Meng Wanzhou case on the political orientation of Chinese voters in the two places will be a difficult issue for the Liberal Government to in the election.
