Mark Carney and Donald Trump hold first official call in two months
Prime Minister Mark Carney, listens as President Donald Trump speaks during a group photo at the G7 Summit on June 16, 2025, in Kananaskis, Alta. Mark Schiefelbein AP Carney has been peppered with attacks from Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre about his handling of the trade crisis, with Poilievre, fresh off a Monday byelection win, slamming the prime minister on Wednesday for his campaign assurances that he was the leader best positioned to wrangle a win out of Trump. 'Mr. Carney, in spite of his great promises of being able to manage Trump, is losing tariff wars with China, with the U.S. and has made no progress in opening other markets abroad,' Poilievre said at a news conference in Surrey, B.C. Yet Carney received support from another staunch conservative on Thursday, with Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe urging a collaborative approach as Canada fends off trade pressures from not only the U.S., but also China's latest targeting of Canadian canola. 'We do need to work together. And this would be new, for this media gallery to have me standing in front of them saying that I am hoping for every success for a Liberal prime minister in this conversation,' Moe told reporters in Saskatoon. The Saskatchewan premier had just convened a meeting with his own front bench, federal Agriculture Minister Heath MacDonald and his parliamentary secretary Kody Blois, and a range of industry groups and exporters. Last week, China slapped a preliminary duty of 75.8 per cent on Canadian canola seed, after Beijing initiated an anti-dumping investigation into Canadian canola last year following the federal government's decision to impose 100 per cent tariffs on imports of Chinese electric vehicles. Earlier this year, China imposed a 100-per-cent tariff on Canadian canola oil and canola meal. The Canola Council of Canada, which attended Thursday's meeting, says the combination of those actions means the Chinese market is now 'effectively closed' to the Canadian canola industry. Moe said Canada's primary goal is to 'protect the market share and the market access that we have into those significant markets, namely the United States of America, of which we are experiencing much uncertainty on a number of fronts, including agriculture products, as well as China, where we have seen first retaliatory tariffs on oil and meal … and more recently, the allegations of anti-dumping.' Moe, who is preparing to visit China in the coming weeks, said it is up to Carney and Chinese President Xi Jinping to resolve the dispute. Blois, speaking alongside the Saskatchewan premier, said Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand is also focusing on identifying other markets for Canadian canola. 'We're cognizant of the importance of the market, and at the same time, I think recognizing that we are in a different world,' Blois said. Anand spent Thursday in Washington with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, though the minister's office said the duo did not discuss Canada-U.S. trade because those matters fall under the purview of her cabinet colleague Dominic LeBlanc. A readout from Rubio's office said he and his Canadian counterpart discussed Haiti's security, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the Russia-Ukraine war, and 'mechanisms to strengthen our hemisphere's response to China's coercive activity.'

Saskatchewan premier calls on Prime Minister Carney to meet with China's Xi on canola
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said Thursday that he wants Prime Minister Mark Carney to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping to resolve the trade issues that have led to steep tariffs on Canadian canola products. "It isn't going to be Premier Moe and President Xi that stand up and say, 'We've come to a trade deal here and everything is good moving forward,'" he said. Moe said he will be in China in the next couple of weeks to engage with officials there, but he believes Carney and Xi are the only two people who can ultimately resolve the trade dispute. "There will be opportunities for the president and the prime minister to meet, I think, when you look at the global calendar of events," he told reporters after a meeting with industry groups and federal government representatives in Saskatoon. Federal Agriculture Minister Heath MacDonald joined the meeting virtually, along with Buckley Belanger, Saskatchewan's representative in cabinet. Moe said MacDonald was planning to be in Saskatoon but was not able to get there because of airline disruptions. Both Carney and Xi are expected to be at the G20 meetings in South Africa in November. The Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation leaders' forum is also being held in South Korea the same month. Moe said Thursday's meeting, which included canola producers and exporters, also included discussions about the challenges with Canada's top export market for canola, the U.S. Moe said he will be in China in the next couple of weeks to engage with officials there, but he believes Carney and Xi are the only two people who can ultimately resolve the trade dispute. China imposed a tariff of nearly 76 per cent on canola seed last week, causing the price of one of Canada's most valuable crops to fall and wiping out millions of dollars in its value. It comes one year after China launched an anti-dumping investigation into Canadian canola, a move in response to Canada's 100 per cent tariff on Chinese electric vehicles, batteries and other products. In response to the Canadian tariffs China has also imposed a 100 per cent tariff on Canadian canola meal and oil. Kody Blois, Carney's parliamentary secretary, said the prime minister plans to be in Western Canada in the coming weeks, "convening stakeholders and the Western premiers about what we can do to support the industry moving forward." "There are a number of options on the table that we could take in the short term to help support the industry from a regulatory side, things that industry has been calling for, whether at the producer level or the processor level," he said. While canola futures are up, Blois said, "there's a lot of uncertainty." Blois said a Joint Economic and Trade Commission meeting is set for next week. That meeting was the result of Carney's bilateral discussion in June with Chinese Premier Li Qiang. "This is an opportunity for Canadian authorities and Chinese authorities to engage on what we see as differences around trade," Blois said. Canada exports nearly $15 billion of canola seed, oil and meal per year, and nearly $5 billion of that went to China in 2024. SaskOilseeds chair Dean Roberts, who was at the Thursday meeting, said farmers are being "used as a pawn in the current geo-political environment." He joined Moe's call for urgent federal action. "Unprecedented market closure amidst an already stressful time of year has a compounding adverse effect on farmers," he said in a statement released by Moe's office.
