OTTAWA, May 20 ― China has lifted a ban on Canadian canola imports, a Canadian official said yesterday, calling it “very good news” for producers that Ottawa argued had been caught up in a diplomatic row.

“We had two big companies who were suspended for a while, so it's very good news for our producers,” she told reporters in Ottawa. Worth tens of billions of dollars, the oil seed crop is used to make cooking oil, animal feed and biodiesel fuel. Relations between Ottawa and Beijing had been thrown into crisis by the arrest three months earlier in Vancouver of Meng Wanzhou ― the chief financial officer of telecoms giant Huawei ― at the request of the United States.
