“…After the Conservative government being in power in 2006, the Prime Minister and other offices kept on criticizing China's human rights situation and met Dalai, these provoked the disapproval of Chinese Government, an official from Chinese Foreign Ministry has ever announced that "it is a disgusting behavior". [4] Recently, the problems of information security, Canada's restriction of Chinese energy investment and Canadian boycott Chinese culture and education activities have emerged and hampered the cooperation between the two countries. In 2014, China-Canada relations once appeared nervous due to the event of Canadian Spy, and this is not solved until now.…”

Abstract-This paper aims at demonstrating and explaining why the China-Canada relations remain "tepid" for a long time. The article argues that the mismatch of state structure and social cognition is the main factor leading to the tepid state. The former is the objective outcome of states' heterogeneous; the latter is the subjective response to China's rising power. At present, structure and cognitive conflicts between China and Canada are still difficult to eliminate, the prospects of the bilateral relations will be not optimistic but keep tepid. China-Canada relations can be consolidated and developed in the future through deepening the interests-link, strengthening the mechanism construction and accumulating the social capital.

“…As this production was coming online, exporters began exploring new markets, including China. Nossal and Sarson (2014) document some of the difficulties that Canadian firms encountered in accessing the Chinese market from 2006-2012. They suggest exports to China slowed after the Canadian government prioritized human rights issues in its diplomatic dealings with China, and after the newly elected Canadian Prime Minister extended an official invitation for the Dalai Lama to visit in 2007.…”

The Chinese government's recent decision to suspend the export licenses of two Canadian grain firms has garnered international attention. The dispute has been portrayed by some as a diplomatic dispute between two countries, and by others as a concern about plant health. We analyze the economics of the dispute, including a simple economic model of international trade in which a large-country importer imposes a targeted import ban on one large-country exporter. The model provides a framework for understanding the economic effects of a trade ban under various market conditions. We also discuss the legal framework and dispute settlement process that would be encountered if the disagreement proceeds to a formal dispute in the World Trade Organization.La récente décision du gouvernement chinois de suspendre les licences d'exportation de deux sociétés céréalières canadiennes a attiré l'attention de la communauté internationale. Le différend a été présenté par certains comme un différend diplomatique entre deux pays, et par d'autres comme une préoccupation phytosanitaire. Nous analysons les aspects économiques du différend, y compris un modèle économique simple de commerce international dans lequel un grand pays importateur impose une interdiction d'importation ciblée à un grand exportateur. Le modèle fournit un cadre permettant de comprendre les effets économiques d'une interdiction commerciale dans diverses conditions de marché. Nous discutons également du cadre juridique et du processus de règlement des différends qui seraient rencontrés si le désaccord devenait un différend formel au sein de l'Organisation mondiale du commerce.

“…Canada's achievement of a "strategic partnership" with China in 2005 never quite lived up to its billing, even before the Harper government commenced its conflicted reconsideration of our relationship with China (Paltiel 2012). Still, the 2014 achievement of the establishment of annual foreign affairs ministers and economic and financial strategic dialogues, to plan bilateral relations and co-ordinate co-operation in different areas (Luo 2015), can be seen as a breakthrough at a time when the conduct of foreign policy is deeply entrenched in the prime minister's office (Nossal and Sarson 2014).…”
