The Canadian International Trade Court submitted an investigation report to the federal government on the 9th, finding that canned vegetables imported from the US caused serious damage to related industries in Canada. The report indicates that during the survey period from 2023 to 2025, Canada's canned vegetable imports increased dramatically. Among them, canned vegetables from the US not only accounted for the main share, but there was a sharp surge in 2025, which is the main cause of serious damage to local Canadian producers. The court found that US goods cannot be exempted from the FTA and must be included in the scope of the restrictive measures. The report also focuses on introducing tariff quotas to deal with industrial damage, and also covers the content of relevant restrictions on balancing food safety and consumer affordability in Canada. According to the statistics in the report, Canada's total imports of canned vegetables surged by about 3.576,000 kilograms from 2024 to 2025. The vast majority of this increase came from the US, and imports from the US surged 151% in 2025. Currently, 45% of the preserved fruits and vegetables consumed in Canada come from imports, with imports from the US accounting for 58% of total imports. The report quoted Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as saying, “Too many of the agricultural products grown in Canada are processed elsewhere, and too many Canadians are still dependent on more expensive imported food. Canadian farmers deserve more channels to sell their produce, and Canadians deserve more channels to buy food.” The Canadian International Trade Tribunal is a quasi-judicial body. In accordance with relevant legal procedures, the court's recommendations will be submitted to the Canadian federal government for final evaluation and decision making.
