The daughter of the CEO, the CFO, who was held under house arrest in Canada at the request of the Trump administration. The allegations could have been real or trumped up (pun not intended). We won't get a chance to see that day now.
Julian Assange the journalist and publisher of Wikileaks is also held under captivity in England at the request of the Biden administration now.
Extraterritorial arrests are clearly bipartisan in nature.
No high powered highly paid lobbyists for Julian though, as he languishes in captivity.

I'm no fan of Huawei or the PRC Regime, but the theory of the case against Meng Wanzhou was made in Canadian court by Crown prosecutors. While they were just trying to argue that the US government had a case to try, and not guilt, the judge found the US case to be a bit tortured and convoluted. So while we are deprived of a legal outcome in US courts, we do know that the US wasn't exactly trying Wanzhou for crimes against humanity (regardless of those she or her organisation may or may not have committed).
