On November 3, Minister of Commerce Wang Wentao and Canadian Minister of International Trade Sidu co-hosted the 29th China-Canada Economic and Trade Joint Committee in Beijing. The two sides had candid and in-depth exchanges on Sino-Canadian economic and trade relations, cooperation in traditional and emerging fields, and mutual economic and trade concerns. Li Chenggang, the representative of the People's Republic of China for international trade negotiations and vice-minister of commerce, attended. Wang Wentao said that under the strategic guidance of the leaders of the two countries, the recent Sino-Canadian economic and trade negotiations have made positive progress, including further extending exemptions related to the preliminary joint arrangement. China is ready to continue to give full play to the role of the Joint Economic and Trade Commission as the main channel for resolving economic and trade differences and promoting economic and trade cooperation, and to continue to reduce the list of issues and lengthen the list of cooperation. At the same time, we will continue to implement the road map for Sino-Canadian economic and trade cooperation, consolidate cooperation in traditional fields such as oil and gas energy, agricultural and fishery products, and consumer goods, further expand cooperation in emerging fields such as new materials, advanced manufacturing, clean energy, and smart agriculture, and provide strong support for the development of Sino-Canadian economic and trade relations.
