ICE canola boosted by trade optimism

Published: October 14, 2025

Glacier FarmMedia — The ICE Futures canola market was posting solid gains at midday Tuesday, as optimism over thawing trade relations with China provided support.

China’s ambassador to Canada told reporters via translator over the Thanksgiving weekend that if Canada removed its tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles China would remove its own levies on Canadian products.

“China’s tariffs on Canadian agricultural products are a countermeasure against the EV tariffs and the unilateral unjustified tariffs on China’s steel and aluminum products,” ambassador Wang Di told CTV’s Question Period, adding “if Canada is ready to correct this practice, China will also respond accordingly.”
