Canadian public opinion is against trade with China

The Canadian public has a negative attitude toward trade with China. This is due to the promise of Prime Minister Trudeau's government to start working with democratic allies in the region. 

Data released on Tuesday showed that exports to China reached a record 3.3 billion Canadian dollars for the month. In US dollars, it amounts to 2.4 billion. Nanos Research Group surveyed for Bloomberg News. According to its results, 61% of respondents are in favor of ending trade with China. It is 16 points more than it was in December 2020. At that time, 45% were in favor of reducing trade.

Also, the survey showed that 24% of respondents are in favor of maintaining trade with China at its current level, and only 5% are in favor of increasing it. These figures practically don’t change depending on the age, gender, and residence of the respondents.  

Last week, the government of Trudeau published the Indo-Pacific strategy. It called China an increasingly destructive power. The strategy involves deepening trade and military ties with other Asian countries. It refers to Japan and South Korea.
