On Friday, Canada’s justice department decided to allow extradition proceedings against Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou. That decision ushers in the next chapter of tensions between the U.S. and China.

Huawei is a Chinese company with strong state ties. That should have been obvious after Beijing responded to Meng’s arrest by arresting two Canadians and upping the sentence of another to death in retaliation. China’s state-run media has also worked overtime burnishing the company’s image, such as by sharing this ridiculous song praising Huawei.
