Anybody know who's going to be carrying the Huawei P20 Pro in Canada I don't see any of the carriers listing it at all.

Thanks

It looks like Huawei’s P-Series is here to stay in Canada. After a limited release last year with the P10, the Chinese smartphone maker will be bringing the P20 and P20 Pro to Canada later this year across all major carriers.

Canadian availability and pricing is yet to be announced, but the P10 last year came to Canada in June after a similar release (the P20 and P20 Pro are available in select markets today), so expect a similar time frame.

And it looks like the problems Huawei is having in the United States don’t extend to Canada – both the P20 and P20 Pro will be available at Rogers, Telus, Bell, Videotron, Koodo, Fido, and Virgin.

I don't have any interest in the phone, but it will be interesting to see if Huawei avoids a similar fare to ZTE... That was banned from US components & software like Google until 2025 because they sold into Iran & North Korea in spite of sanctions, then lied about it.

Big NY Times article Wednesday on ZTE.
