Wang Yi meets with Mark Carney in first Chinese FM visit to Canada in 10 years

Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney vow to deepen bilateral ties on Friday.

Wang is the first Chinese foreign minister visiting Canada in a decade. Carney is attempting to repair ties with China following several years of acrimony over issues ranging from the arrest of Huawei's senior executive in 2018, to 100% Canadian tariffs on China-made electric vehicles.

Ottawa push to boost ties has been made more pressing by higher US import tariffs.

Wang says a better China-Canada relationship serves the interests of both countries and is the right choice for Canada.
