He Lifeng co-chaired the second China-Canada economic and financial strategic
dialogue with Canada’s finance minister and minister of international trade. He
said bilateral ties have eased and exchanges resumed; China is willing to work
with Canada to deepen cooperation in trade, finance and investment to stabilize
and support healthy development of economic relations and to help build a
new‑type strategic partnership. Both sides reported a series of mutually
beneficial outcomes and consensus and jointly attended a China‑Canada business
roundtable.
