Harper Says Canada Investment in China Has Been Difficult

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Chinese companies have been able to invest easily in Canada, while his country’s investments in China have been more difficult.

“Canada has had a situation with the People’s Republic of China for some years where their investment has been virtually unrestricted here and we have had more difficulty with our investment there,” Harper said in response to a question in the House of Commons in Ottawa today about a foreign investment protection agreement.

Harper called that agreement “an important step forward.”
