Mciver: Sarah Mciver and Visa Issue

mciver: She was detained and questioned over a visa issue, according to CTV. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau addressed the situation earlier on Wednesday, saying that McIver's case did not appear to be linked to a matter of national security for the Chinese. She has been identified as Sarah McIver, of Alberta, and had been teaching in China. The first indications are that this is a very separate case compared to the two others that occurred, Trudeau told journalists at his year-end news conference. Earlier in December, China detained former Canadian diplomat Michael Kovrig and entrepreneur Michael Spavor in Beijing. The others that were arrested at the start of the week were accused of serious crimes, problems regarding national security, intelligence. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
