Supreme Court judge signed off Tuesday on a schedule that will see extradition proceedings against Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou play out well into 2021. But to get to that point, defence and Crown lawyers will lock horns for months over documents and procedure. At that point, the defence will make its arguments about Meng's arrest and Trump's alleged interference. The final step in the extradition court proceedings, if necessary, is a hearing on committal, scheduled for a week, beginning Apr. China claims there is no link between the cases but has expressed anger with Meng's arrest and called on Canada to end the extradition proceedings.
