2025年6月2日星期一,馬克·卡尼總理在薩斯卡通出席首席部長會議。
薩斯卡通——馬克·卡尼總理周一表示,聯邦政府計劃緊急采取行動,取消中國對加拿大農產品和海產品加征的關稅。

卡尼在薩斯卡通會見各位省長後告訴記者:“加拿大政府正在與中國同行進行部長級接觸,我們將繼續進行這些討論。”

“這是我們的首要任務。”

這項承諾是在會後發表的一份聲明中做出的,聲明中表示,各位省長希望改善加拿大與中國的貿易關係。

在渥太華對中國產電動汽車、鋼鐵和鋁征收關稅後,北京對加拿大菜籽油和菜籽粕、豌豆和海鮮征收了報複性關稅。

薩斯喀徹溫省省長斯科特·莫伊表示,他歡迎此舉,因為中國的關稅威脅著該省的油菜籽產業。

“(這些談判)正是我們所需要的,這不僅能確保我們產品的長期市場準入,還能確保與中國建立更廣泛的貿易關係,”莫伊說。

曼尼托巴省省長瓦布·基內夫表示,這也是該省的優先事項,加拿大人必須共同努力,實現經濟強國。

“(這)是為了確保你們和你們的就業能夠獲得最大利益,”他說。

一些加拿大西部農民表示,自由黨政府應該考慮取消對中國電動汽車的關稅,他們認為此舉將鼓勵北京方麵取消相關措施。

他們還表示,渥太華應該向可能因貿易爭端而遭受財務打擊的生產商提供財政支持。

2024年,加拿大向中國出口了價值9.2億美元的菜籽油和價值2100萬美元的菜籽油。

海鮮行業的人士也表示,這些措施存在問題,他們將不得不承擔成本。

中國是加拿大僅次於美國的第二大魚類和海鮮出口市場,去年向這個亞洲國家出口了價值13億美元的產品。

Removing Chinese tariffs on Canadian agriculture products a priority, says Carney

By The Canadian Press June 02, 2025 
 
Prime Minister Mark Carney during the First Minister’s Meeting in Saskatoon on Monday, June 2, 2025. 

SASKATOON — The federal government plans to work urgently to remove Chinese tariffs on Canadian agriculture and seafood products, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Monday.

“The Canadian government is engaging with its Chinese counterparts at the ministerial level and we’ll continue those discussions,” Carney told reporters after meeting with premiers in Saskatoon.

“They’re a top priority for us.”

The commitment came in a statement after the meeting and it says premiers want Canada’s trading relationship with China to improve.

Beijing imposed retaliatory tariffs on Canadian canola oil and meal, peas and seafood after Ottawa slapped levies on Chinese-made electric vehicles, steel and aluminum.

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said he welcomes the the move, as China’s tariffs threaten the province’s canola industry.

“(These discussions) are precisely what this will take to not only secure our market access for products in the long term, but secure a more broad trading relationship with China,” Moe said.

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew said it’s also a priority for his province and that Canadians must work together to come out strong economically.

“(It’s) to make sure that you and your jobs come out on top,” he said.

Some western Canadian farmers have said the Liberal government should consider removing tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, a move they say would encourage Beijing to lift its measures.

They’ve also said Ottawa should provide financial support to producers who may take a financial hit due to the trade dispute.

In 2024, Canada exported $920-million worth of canola meal to China along with $21-million worth of oil.

Those in the seafood industry have also said the measures are problematic and that they’ll have to absorb costs.

China is Canada’s second largest fish and seafood export market after the U.S., with $1.3 billion in products shipped to the Asian nation last year.
