Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to lead a trade mission to China from January 13 to 17, aiming to explore new markets for British Columbia’s (B.C.) energy and agriculture sectors. Meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping will address trade, energy, and international security, with B.C. officials hopeful for advancements in LNG and forestry exports. The visit marks the first by a Canadian prime minister since 2017, amidst growing economic tensions with the U.S. and opportunities for green energy partnerships.
