CHINA’S Ministry of Commerce said Friday that the country is strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposes the Canadian government’s recent restrictive measures on steel imports. The remarks were made by a ministry spokesperson in response to a media query on the issue.
Canada’s Department of Finance recently announced that in response to US tariffs on steel and global steel overproduction, it will implement tariff rate quotas on a larger scale of imports while tightening the existing quotas starting 1 August, with surtaxes levied on imports beyond the quota limit. Additionally, a 25 per cent surtax will be imposed on imports from all countries other than the United States that contain steel melted and poured in China.
China hopes that Canada will immediately rectify its wrong practices.
