One of Canada's biggest canola exporters says its shipments are being blocked by China and the company’s vice-president suspects the move is politically motivated.

Richardson International senior vice-president Jean-Marc Ruest told CTV News that the company learned Friday that its customs registration had been revoked.Canada and China are currently at odds over the arrest of Chinese telecom executive Meng Wanzhou on behalf of the United States. Canada confirmed Friday that it will move forward with Meng’s extradition.

Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland was asked Tuesday in Montreal whether she believes the cancellation of Richardson’s registration is related to the bilateral dispute. “Richardson is a great Canadian company with a storied history in our country,” Freeland added. “As the daughter of a canola farmer and as someone herself who has swathed many, many acres of canola, I take very personally our canola trade.”

If Canada and U.S. and other countries are playing politics with China, how they expect China not to play politics also?

Why are we always reacting to them? How about WE cancel all grain shipments this year. They can buy from USA. Oh, that’s right they’re in a trade war with USA. Hmm. Maybe there’s some extra grain in Africa or maybe in NK can supply? Play with a bull and you get the horn.
