The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, Sept. 5, edition that Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe will be accompanied by Mark Carney's parliamentary secretary, Kody Blois, during a trade mission to China from Sept. 6 to 9. The Globe's Kate Helmore writes that their focus is on ending the 75.8-per-cent tariffs on Canadian canola seed imposed in mid-August, while also exploring export opportunities in South Korea and Japan. Mr. Moe emphasized that the discussions with Chinese officials are crucial for building relationships and finding a solution that ultimately requires Ottawa's involvement. China's tariffs on canola seed have significantly impacted 40,000 canola farmers in Western Canada, costing them tens of thousands of dollars due to fluctuating prices as they face the loss of their second-largest market, valued at $4.9-billion. With harvest season starting, many farmers must now accept lower prices. The current preliminary duties, collected as a deposit, could become permanent if the trade dispute is not resolved before China completes its antidumping investigation. Mr. Moe highlighted the need for "careful navigation" in the canola trade dispute between the U.S. and China.
