The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, Aug. 22, edition that Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe is heading to China to discuss market access for Canadian canola -- and he wants Prime Minister Mark Carney to join him. The Globe's Kate Helmore writes that the Premier says his trade mission will focus on market access for the province's most important export to China, but his powers to persuade Beijing to drop a preliminary 75.8-per-cent duty on canola are limited. Beijing announced that it would bring in the hefty duty on canola seed last Tuesday, toward the end of a year-long anti-dumping probe. The tariff came into force last week, canola meal and oil already had tariffs. China's Ministry of Commerce said Canada's canola sector had benefited from extensive government subsidies and preferential policies that distorted markets. The Premier stressed that canola is traded fairly, and Beijing's actions require intervention from the federal government. Mr. Moe did not provide an exact date for the trip, but said he hoped to travel to China in the next few weeks. Many in Canada's canola industry say China's action is a political response to Canadian tariffs in other sectors.
