SCOTT MOE COMES BACK FROM CHINA EMPTY-HANDED

Despite Big Talk, Moe’s Trip Came A Year Too Late With Nothing To Show For It

REGINA – Scott Moe’s hastily organized trip to China to address punishing tariffs on canola has ended with nothing to show for it. For months, Saskatchewan NDP leader Carla Beck has called on Moe to lead a trade mission to China and make Saskatchewan’s case directly to officials.

Instead, as Saskatchewan merchandise exports to China plummeted, Moe insisted it was Ottawa’s responsibility to lobby Beijing. Only under mounting pressure from canola producers did Moe scramble to organize a last-minute trip that produced no results.

“Instead of getting ahead of this months ago, they slapped together this last-minute trip in a matter of days and now we see the results — nothing, nada — as expected,” said Kim Breckner, Saskatchewan NDP Shadow Minister for Trade & Export Development.

According to Statistics Canada, Saskatchewan merchandise exports were down 21.1 per cent in July. Year-to-date, Saskatchewan exports to China have fallen 28.8 per cent, and by 48.5 per cent comparing July 2024 to July 2025.

“Farmers and producers don’t need excuses or political theatre — they need results. Saskatchewan deserves a Premier who leads from the front, not someone who shows up late and comes home empty-handed,” Breckner said.

“Canola is key to the future of our economy,” she added.
