Canada was awakened by the United States and called for improving economic and trade relations with China.

Woken up by the U.S.! Canada demands to improve trade relations with China! On July 25, according to foreign media reports, Canadian local governments urged Prime Minister Trudeau to repair trade relations with China, saying that the U.S. tariff policies have forced Canada to cooperate with China. The premier of Saskatchewan, the largest canola-producing province in Canada, Moore said that if Canada wants to achieve trade diversification, it must readjust its relationship with China.

The premier of British Columbia, Eby, said that U.S. President Trump "is indifferent to our policy towards China, and in fact, he seems to have no intention of giving Canada better treatment than China. The U.S. has not recognized Canada for cooperating with Washington's policy towards China, leading Ottawa to be caught between two major trading partners. Obviously, under the pressure of U.S. tariffs, Canada has been woken up, and now there are people inside Canada urging the Canadian government to improve trade and economic relations with China."

However, from Canada's change of attitude, we can see very clearly. This change in Canada has two main reasons. First, on economic and trade issues, Canada believes it is squeezed between the U.S. and China, bearing too much pressure. Second, Canada cooperated with the U.S. to suppress us, but this still resulted in being ignored by the U.S., which made Canada feel very bitter.

To be honest, from our perspective, we naturally welcome Canada's adjustment of its position towards China. However, Canada's current attitude is obviously a bit reluctant. It is because of being ignored by the U.S. that Canada changed its attitude. If the U.S. continues to exert pressure on Canada or gives some small benefits to win it over, Canada may immediately turn against us. Therefore, regarding the improvement of Sino-Canadian relations, we might as well wait a little longer. So far, Canada seems not to have realized that the Sino-Canadian relationship itself has value.
