Canada's relationship with China is being evaluated in the context of agri-food trade and national strategy. The Carney government is positioning itself ahead of the CUSMA/USMCA review and renewal to influence future trade rules. Action items emphasize diversifying trade relationships and reinforcing Canada's role in global agri-food supply chains. The event lineup of policy experts, industry representatives and journalists signals coordinated attention across academia, industry advocacy and policy institutes. The timing in early February 2026 situates these priorities before formal trade-renewal processes proceed.
