Canada Breaks with US, Cuts Tariffs for China | Vantage with Palki Sharma | N18G

Canada is reopening its doors to China. In a major policy shift, Ottawa will ease tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, while Beijing will slash duties on Canadian canola exports. The agreement marks a thaw in relations frozen since 2018 and represents a clear divergence from U.S. trade policy. Mark Carney’s visit to Beijing seals what he calls a “new relationship” shaped by global realities. The deal expands into agriculture, energy, and finance, with visa-free travel added to the mix. For Canada, it’s about diversification. For China, it’s a diplomatic win—pulling a U.S. ally closer into its strategic orbit.
