Ottawa’s national security review, shutdown order ‘procedurally unfair’: Hikvision
CANADA, JUL 9 – Hikvision claims the Canadian national security review was unfair and alleges procedural errors in the shutdown order issued by the federal government on June 27, 2025.
- Hikvision, a Chinese manufacturer of surveillance cameras, is contesting a federal order that requires it to cease its business activities in Canada by June 27, 2025.

- Hikvision emphasizes its ongoing global commitments, including a two-day education summit in Singapore with over 400 participants showcasing AI-driven EdTech solutions and a strategic partnership with ITE College East.
- Senior Manager Yu Qifan explained that their approach is designed to improve the safety of school campuses, streamline administrative processes, and support intelligent teaching methods. Meanwhile, Vice President Vivianna Wong emphasized their commitment to applying intelligent solutions to practical, everyday educational settings.
- This appeal and outreach indicate Hikvision’s intent to continue supporting education technology innovation globally despite the shutdown order and ongoing legal challenges.
