Protesters Demonstrate Hikvision At ADI Canada Branch
Protestors demonstrated outside an ADI Canada office over its sales of Hikvision. After being banned in Quebec and removed from CANASA events, Hikvision's problems are increasing in Canada.
ADI has stood by Hikvision, even touting they are "stronger together" with them, prompting a US Congressman to call ADI's actions appalling.
In this report, we examine the protest and its impact.
