A CIIE moment for China-Canada trade

Canada's return as a Guest Country of Honor at the ninth CIIE reflects its push to diversify trade and deepen practical cooperation with China. With around 120 Canadian companies across agrifood, consumer goods, finance and services, the expo serves as a market-testing platform. Following Canadian Prime Minister Carney's January visit to China, clearer priorities and stronger dialogue are helping businesses build lasting partnerships. The real measure of success will be the cooperation that continues after the exhibition closes.
