TORONTO - A Canadian court on Wednesday threw out a long-standing deal that has allowed the country to send asylum seekers back to the United States, saying it violates their rights by exposing them to likely detention on the U.S. side.

A Canadian court ruled Wednesday that the charges the United States has filed against Huawei's chief financial officer are also crimes in Canada, a decision that keeps her under house arrest in an extradition case that has ensnared Ottawa in a dispute between Beijing and Washington.
