China’s Ministry of Commerce will initiate an anti-dumping investigation into canola seed imports from Canada. This investigation is part of China’s response to Canada’s decision to impose tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, steel, and aluminum. “China is a valued market for Canadian canola,” says Chris Davison, Canola Council of Canada’s president and CEO.
“We are confident that an investigation into Canada’s canola trade with China will demonstrate alignment with and reinforce our support for rules-based trade.”
The Canola Council is waiting for further details on the investigation and will work closely with the federal government on this situation.
“Working to maintain open and predictable trade for canola is a top priority for the CCC,” Davis adds. “We will continue to engage on this issue to support market access and competitiveness for Canadian canola in this key market.”
The Canola Council of Canada represents the entire value chain in the canola-growing process.
