Agriculture and Agri-Food Minister Lawrence MacAulay will be leading his third trade mission to China next week.
He'll be joined by a delegation of over 300 people, including agricultural leaders and provincial partners.
"The Government of Canada is very pleased with the continued cooperation between Canada and China." said MacAulay. "I look forward to taking part in agri-business events in China to showcase Canada's agri-food and fish and seafood sectors, help grow exports for Canadian products and strengthen the trading relationship between our two countries."
MacAulay will also join Minister of Finance Bill Morneau, and Minister of International Trade Diversification Jim Carr, at the Canada-China Economic and Financial Strategic Dialogue.
Other stops include the China International Import Expo and China Fisheries and Seafood Expo.
In 2017, China imported $8.6 billion worth of agricultural, agri-food and seafood products from Canada.
