Of course … Canada and China reach tariff deal on electric vehicles, canola

BEIJING — Canada will lower its U.S.-aligned tariffs against Chinese electric vehicles in exchange for China reducing tit-for-tat tariffs against Canadian canola and seafood, a deal that has the potential to anger U.S. President Donald Trump.

Under the agreement, Canada will allow a small toehold for up to 49,000 Chinese EVs to enter the Canadian market at a tariff rate of 6.1 percent, down from the current tariff rate of 100 per cent that Ottawa applied on Chinese-made EVs in fall 2024.

Prime Minister Mark Carney said it simply returns to a rate that Canada once had with China in 2023 prior to its “recent trade frictions.”

He underscored Chinese manufacturers — who churn out electric cars far more cheaply than North American-made EVs — will invest in auto production in Canada.

WARMINGTON: Mark Carney tells China, Canada ready for ‘New World Order’

When you have Prime Minister Mark Carney talking to leaders in China about the “new world order,” one has to wonder what could be coming next.

Social credit scores? Digital ID? More carbon taxes? More net zero talk? Fifteen minute cities?

Greenland Is the Flashpoint: China and Russia Test NATO, Canada, and Indigenous Arctic Jurisdictions

OTTAWA — The Arctic is no longer a margin. It is a hinge. It anchors nuclear deterrence, opens future maritime routes, and holds resources vital to global economies.

Over time, NATO Arctic countries have deployed forces, conducted exercises, and invested in infrastructure, but these measures have not kept pace with Russian and Chinese activity, evolving operational risks, and shifting environmental dynamics. Russian under-ice submarine operations, Chinese dual-use activity, and growing pressure on Arctic infrastructure are expanding as ice coverage shifts and navigable waters increase.

Joly Hints Ottawa Seeking Free Trade With China

Industry Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada should pursue free trade with other countries, including China, in the face of rising U.S. protectionism.

Carney in running to be the next Maduro …

Free Trade with China? Say goodbye to the auto industry.

Every country for itself: The chilling message in Mark Carney’s snub of Taiwan

Imagine for a moment that a delegation of friendly foreign lawmakers has been urgently summoned back home in the middle of an all-expenses-paid visit to Ottawa.

Invited to Canada in the hope of building relationships and nurturing alliances in a hostile world, they’ve fled to avoid angering U.S. President Donald Trump, or to be seen as fraternizing with a territory he claims as the 51st American state.

The insult to Canada and to Canadians would be obvious.

China Elbows into Greenland Debate, Backing Denmark Against Trump‘s Acquisition Plans

China Deploys Five Icebreakers Near Alaska in Unprecedented Arctic Move

The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Monday elbowed its way into the debate over President Donald Trump’s effort to acquire Greenland, slamming the U.S. for “using other countries as an excuse for pursuing its own selfish interests.”

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning was responding to a reporter who quoted Trump saying that if America does not acquire Greenland, “Russia or China will.”

China is not an Arctic nation.

LILLEY: Canada risks trading U.S. democracy for China’s dictatorship

WASHINGTON — Walking through Lafayette Park and across the north side of the White House on Monday afternoon, there was the usual gaggle of people taking selfies. There were also the usual protesters, people with signs reading “not my president” and of course given the recent news, protesting ICE in Minnesota.

Mark Carney wants to boost trade with China without angering Donald Trump

VANCOUVER—At a critical time of upheaval in global politics, Prime Minister Mark Carney is trying to court the attention of one great power and avoid the ire of another, all while holding his political ground at home.

Carney was to leave Canada Tuesday afternoon. En route to Beijing, the prime minister detoured to do the thing he’s accused of not doing enough: listen to the political leaders who could make or break a key part of his ambitious trade agenda.

Why Trump’s tariff threat over Iran is bad news for China

A big complaint of western businesses when Beijing first opened up its economy was that the Chinese never seemed to understand the concept of a deal. There would be a handshake and a document signing but then, when the investment money arrived or the first order from a factory was dispatched, the Chinese side would seek to renegotiate terms all over again.

That must be how President Xi is feeling now, only with the boot firmly on the other foot — in this case that of President Trump, who has his own unique approach to dealmaking.

Doug Ford says he’s ‘100% dead against’ lifting Canadian tariffs on Chinese EVs

As Prime Minister Mark Carney heads to China for talks aimed at boosting trade, Premier Doug Ford is imploring him to keep Canadian tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.

The Star reported Monday that Carney’s officials are in “active discussions” with Beijing about lowering or dropping the 100 per cent tariffs on Chinese EVs that Canada imposed in 2024.

That’s because the prime minister — who has brought Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe with him on the trade mission — hopes that, in exchange, China will remove its punitive counter-tariffs on Canadian canola and seafood.

Chinese state media urging Canada to cut ties with US during Carney trip

Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to arrive in China on Wednesday as Beijing signalled interest in encouraging Canada to pursue a foreign policy less aligned with the United States, amid ongoing trade tensions and shifting global alliances.

Chinese state media have urged Ottawa to adopt what they describe as “strategic autonomy,” arguing Canada should chart a path independent of Washington, The Canadian Press reported.

Uncovered: Secret room beneath Chinese embassy that poses threat to City

China is to build a hidden chamber alongside Britain’s most sensitive communication cables as part of a network of 208 secret rooms beneath its new London “super-embassy”, The Telegraph can reveal.

This newspaper has uncovered detailed plans for an underground complex below the vast diplomatic site in central London, which Beijing has sought to keep from public scrutiny.

Despite the apparent security risk, Sir Keir Starmer is expected to approve the embassy before a visit to China later this month, when he is due to meet Xi Jinping, the Chinese president.

Human Rights Coalition and Former Diplomatic Hostage Sound Alarm as PM Carney Heads to Beijing — Questions Swirl Around Chrétien’s China Business Ties

BEIJING / OTTAWA — On the eve of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s first official visit to China, a coalition of nine human-rights organizations is elevating an open letter urging Ottawa to put human rights at the center of Canada’s dealings with Beijing, rather than deepen commercial ties that critics say reflect the influence of a powerful Quebec-based business lobby long associated with former Liberal leader Jean Chrétien.

Carney government in talks with China about EV tariffs

OTTAWA — Canadian negotiators are in “active discussions” with China about lowering or dropping tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles in exchange for easing punitive Chinese counter-tariffs on Canadian canola and seafood, but government officials declined to say how it might affect Canada’s trade tensions with a U.S. administration that is hawkish on blocking China’s EVs from North America.

On the eve of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s trip to Beijing, the talks are considered so politically sensitive as the U.S. and Canada navigate the upcoming negotiation to renew the North American free trade pact that Canadian officials would say very little about the tariff dispute that is jamming Ottawa between China and the U.S. and opened a double trade war for this country.

It appears Ford was not asked for comment.

Russia and China co-operating more often and more closely in the Arctic, says NORAD commander

There’s been a subtle but significant shift in what NORAD has been seeing over the last year when it comes to mostly Russian — but also Chinese — activity in the Arctic, says the top commander of the North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD).

U.S. Gen. Gregory Guillot tells CBC News that air and sea incursions into the zones just outside North America have not only become more frequent, but also more co-ordinated.

“I’d say the most consequential difference in 2025 has been the volume, the simultaneous volume,” Guillot said in an exclusive interview.

Underground church says leaders detained as China steps up crackdown

Carney loves China. Carney wants to ‘recalibrate’ Canada-China relations with visit

Leaders of a prominent underground church have been detained in south-west China, according to a church statement, the latest blow in what appears to be a sweeping crackdown on unregistered Christian groups in the country.

On Tuesday, Li Yingqiang, the leader of the Early Rain Covenant Church, was taken by police from his home in Deyang, a small city in Sichuan province, according to the statement. Li’s wife, Zhang Xinyue, has also been detained, along with two other church members: Dai Zhichao, a pastor; and Ye Fenghua, a lay member. At least a further four members were taken and later released, while some others remain out of contact.

The crackdown followed the arrest of 18 senior members of Zion Church, another prominent underground church, in a nationwide sweep in October. In December, there were also reports of approximately 100 members of another unofficial church in Zhejiang province being detained , according to Human Rights Watch.
