法新社7月22日消息称,处于中国和加拿大外交风暴中心的华为公司周一宣布,预计到2025年,在加拿大北部上百个村镇铺设其信号网络。铺设范围一半是在极地。




2018年,中国政府曾经宣布建设“极地丝路”,通过北极海运联通中国与富含天然资源的冰天雪地。法新社称,华为和专攻加拿大北部电信基础建设的Ice Wireless公司合作,目标是到2025年为止,给加拿大边远地区的20个北极村镇和50多个魁北克北部村镇提供网络服务,加拿大因纽特人村落也在网络铺设范围之内。


在日前召开的极地峰会期间,美国国务卿蓬佩奥提到,“中国政府在5年之间向极地投资大约900亿美元,尤其利用冰川融化,重点开发北部极地海域”,他指责中国“具有攻击性”,并表示“拒绝让中国以任何方式觊觎北极”。

Huawei says new 4G internet plan in Canada’s north was approved by feds

The Canadian unit of China’s Huawei Technologies Co Ltd sought to distance itself from the actions of the Chinese government on Monday, with a top local executive saying the company is worried about two Canadian men being held by Beijing.

Canada‘s arrest of Huawei’s chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou – the daughter of the company’s founder – stands at the heart of months of tensions between the two countries.

After she was picked up in Vancouver on a U.S. arrest warrant, China detained two Canadian men and later charged them with spying. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has condemned the arrests and several Canadian allies, including the United States, are calling for their release.

“Obviously we’re concerned, like all Canadians are concerned, about their well-being,” Huawei Canada‘s Vice President of Corporate Affairs Alykhan Velshi said when asked about the two men being held in China.

“This is a time of real tension between Canada and China, and it can only be solved by governments,” Velshi told reporters in Ottawa, after announcing a partnership to furnish high-speed 4G Internet to isolated communities in Canada‘s Far North.

Huawei said it would partner with ICE Wireless and Iristel to provide high-speed internet to 20 communities in the Arctic and 70 in rural and remote areas of Quebec by 2025, potentially reaching some 200,000 people living in those areas.

No financial details were provided.

Velshi said the new project was approved under the federal Security Review Program, which is designed to protect critical infrastructure.

The program is run by the Communications Security Establishment, in conjunction with the Public Safety Department, Global Affairs Canada and other federal departments.

Huawei also said it would include residents of the Far North in its plans to train 1,000 Canadians to install and use its technology, and that it would launch a major advertising campaign in movie theaters across the country featuring short documentaries about how high-speed Internet is helping people in the Far North.

The Huawei announcements come amid diplomatic tensions and as experts in Ottawa are reviewing the security implications of 5G networks, including Huawei’s participation. The United States put Huawei, the world’s largest telecommunications equipment maker, on a blacklist in May, citing national security concerns.

Last week, Reuters reported that Canada was likely to postpone a decision on whether to allow Huawei to supply 5G network equipment until after the October federal election due to increasingly strained relations with Beijing.

Velshi said the characterization of the company’s Canadian offices as “Dr. Evil’s lair” where they are “toiling away at the latest world-ending scheme” is false. Instead the offices are filled with “a bunch of engineers solving engineering problems,” he said.

Instead, he said, Huawei has been supplying network equipment in Canada since 2008, and had some 1,100 employees nationally.

Referring to the 5G decision, Velshi said: “We would ask for the government to judge us on our record in Canada, and for decisions to be made based on technology and not politics.”

 
加拿大北边这地广人稀的地方,有其他更好的办法来搞网络吗?感觉铺线很费钱。
大都是无人区
 
一个中国公司能在加拿大达成一项商业合同,自然对公司是件好事,但是偏偏在宣传上和中国政府的极地丝路政策挂钩,特别不会聊天,这是自找麻烦的节奏。

任总呢?管管无脑小编别出来胡搞。
忘了提醒你,这是法广新闻的稿子,咋滴还想读新华社通稿?看到西方媒体对华为又爱又恨的样子挺好玩。
