The incident in Fort McMurray, Alberta, began over an expired registration plate. Mr Adam was charged with assaulting police and resisting arrest.

It comes as the US has pressured other countries, including the UK, to bar Huawei for national security reasons.

Nobody says Trump hates Huawei or pretty much any company linked to China...
