"textContent": "\n\n\n\nChina's government says it will suspend some tariffs on Canadian agricultural goods following a recent visit by Prime Minister Mark Carney.\n\nThe country's finance ministry says 100 per cent tariffs on canola meal and peas, and a 25 per cent levy on lobsters and crabs, will not be imposed.\n\nA statement says the announcement, which made no mention of canola seed tariffs, will take effect March 1 and continue through to the end of 2026.\n\nThe announcement comes after Carney met earlier this year with Chinese President Xi Jinping in a visit that saw the leaders ink a deal on electric vehicles and canola.\n\nThe pair agreed Canada would import up to 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles each year at a tariff rate of 6.1 per cent in exchange for lower duties on canola seed.\n\nCarney's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\n\n_This report by The Canadian Press was first published Feb. 27, 2026._",
