Concerns about Mexico’s trade policies toward China ‘legitimate’: Freeland

Lawyers defending the two men facing criminal fraud charges stemming from the $300-million redevelopment of Toronto’s St. Michael’s Hospital argued at the pair’s trial on Wednesday that no single person could decide who won the contract but that Bondfield was the “obvious” choice.Vas Georgiou, the former chief administrative officer of St. Michael’s, and John Aquino, the former president of Bondfield Construction Co. Ltd., are each charged with two counts of fraud over $5,000. They have both pleaded not guilty and the allegations against them have not been proven.
