A Canadian businessman who was detained in China for over two years has come forward to express his concerns about a recent electric vehicle (EV) deal between the Canadian government and the UK's former head of the Bank of England, Mark Carney. Michael Spavor, who was released from Chinese custody in 2021 after being held on espionage charges, has warned that the deal could put Canada's national security at risk. Spavor's comments highlight the growing unease among some Canadians about the country's increasing reliance on foreign investment and partnerships, particularly with major powers like China. As the Canadian government continues to push for its EV agenda, Spavor's warning raises questions about the potential consequences of this ambitious plan.
