Despite challenges in the Canada-China relationship, both sides should focus on strengthening cooperation in various fields, Chinese Ambassador to Canada Cong Peiwu said.
Cong spoke during a recent webinar, China s Development: Its Impact on the World and Canada-China Relations , held by the Institute for Peace and Diplomacy.
Against the backdrop of a pandemic and a chill in Sino-Canadian relations, Canada s exports to China increased by about 8 percent in 2020 while Canada s overall exports fell by about 12 percent. This reflects the resilience of China-Canada economic and trade relations, Cong said.
The ambassador said China and Canada are not entangled in historical issues nor do they have major conflicts of interest. The economies of the two countries are highly complementary, and both are committed to promoting free trade, which means we are natural cooperation partners .

Rising prices reflect growing industrial and consumer activity after last year s global shutdown to fight the coronavirus pandemic. But investors worry surging inflation might disrupt the recovery or prompt central banks to withdraw stimulus and near-zero interest rates.
The market reaction was mild, reflecting the belief that this jump in inflation will eventually calm, Tai Hui of JP Morgan Asset Management said in a report.
The Federal Reserve says this surge should be temporary, but if inflation does not calm, the challenge to the U.S. central bank s credibility could be disruptive, Hui said.
