China hit Canadian canola seed imports with preliminary 75.8% duties last month following an anti-dumping investigation, escalating a year-long trade dispute. China is by far Canada’s biggest canola seed market.
“We’re going to work hard to get that right … the minister of international trade has been engaged, our foreign minister is engaged, I will be engaged to work to find a solution for our agricultural relationship,” Carney told reporters in Toronto.
Canada, the world’s largest exporter of canola, shipped almost C$5 billion ($3.63 billion) of canola products to China in 2024, about 80% of which was seed. The steep duties on canola seed, if they remain in place, would likely all but end those Chinese imports.
