Prime Minister Mark Carney has announced that his parliamentary secretary, Liberal MP Kody Blois, will travel to China from Sept. 6 to 9 as part of a trade delegation led by Saskatchewan’s premier to discuss China’s canola tariffs.
The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) made the announcement on Sept. 4, saying Blois will “engage constructively” with Chinese officials in discussing trade irritants and will “demonstrate” Ottawa’s commitment to supporting Canadian farmers affected by Beijing’s tariffs.
