Chinese surveillance camera maker Hikvision is seeking a judicial review of the federal government’s recent order requiring the company to cease operations and shut down its business in Canada over national security concerns.

Industry Minister Mélanie Joly announced the decision on June 27, saying Ottawa had determined Hikvision’s continued operations would be “injurious” to Canada’s national security.
