Canada: China Retaliates and u.s.-China Relationship

canada: If China retaliates with measures of its own, some see the potential for a tit-for-tat tariffs dispute that could drag Canada's economy down as well, according to Guelph Mercury. Then, there's the diplomatic question of what could happen if Canada is seen favouring one relationship over the other. U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to take punitive economic measures against China, accusing it of destroying the U.S. economy. But McCallum said the reality is that no one knows yet how the U.S.-China relationship will play out in the coming weeks or months, him least of all, as he remains in Canada before officially taking up his post in the spring. We are able to walk and chew gum at the same time, McCallum said about balancing both relationships. His job will be to focus on Canada-China relations, others will focus on the Canada-U.S. dynamic, but neither should suffer, he said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
