B.C. tour operators are calling on the federal government to thaw relations with China, after it emerged that the Chinese government left Canada off a list of countries approved for tour groups.

China is the second-largest market for international travellers to B.C., according to provincial Crown corporation Destination B.C. — meaning China's decision to exclude Canada could significantly hit the provincial tourism industry's bottom line.

"Prior to the pandemic, we had over 50 flights a week from various Chinese cities into Vancouver," she said. "It was a really big market for us." Walt Judas, CEO of the Tourism Industry Association of B.C., said Chinese tourists liked to spend on tour-related activities and amenities, including tour buses and cultural activities.

Glynnis Chan, who owns Happy Times Travel in Vancouver, said the most important thing for tourism operators in the province was for good relations between Canada and China.
