China to offer canola relief for easing EV curbs during Carney visit
I really can't wait for this happen. Chinese EVs are superb and are more affordable than most of the competition. Pricing is also one of the big deterrents to EV adoption here since it can cost more than an ICE vehicle.

Mark Carney heading to China with ‘work to be done’ to repair strained relationship with Canada
That's fair, China is far more predictable and less volatile than the US. We should also strengthen trade ties with the EU and other Commonwealth nations. Good business is where you find it, and that isn't in the US. The complicating factor is that China is gravitating toward making/accepting payments in the yuan as opposed to the USD or other currencies. We might end up having to stockpile yuan reserves if it keeps up, which means accepting yuan as payment for our goods. If China's currency collapses then we'll be in trouble. Of course, I wouldn't expect to have to do this in this decade, it's a Future Canada problem. More on reddit.com
