In the news today: Cabinet retreat continues, China’s envoy on EVs, Buy Canadian wave
China's ambassador promotes an EV deal to create Canadian jobs and reduce car costs as a buy-Canadian trend grows amid trade tensions and inflation, officials said.
- On Jan. 23, 2026, Prime Minister Mark Carney and his cabinet convene in Quebec City for a second day of meetings ahead of Parliament's return Monday, The Canadian Press reported.
- The retreat focuses on the economy, affordability and security with experts in government, finance, community services, advanced technology and global affairs presenting.
- Wang Di said China’s ambassador to Canada aims to create jobs and cheaper cars, despite critics like Premier Doug Ford and the autoworkers' union calling the deal a 'self-inflicted wound' after Ottawa's last-week agreement.
- The buy Canadian movement could ramp up again during trade talks as shoppers shifted last year due to trade rhetoric and inflation, Amar Singh of Kantar says there is high likelihood.
- U.S. President Donald Trump rescinded Prime Minister Mark Carney's invitation to the Board of Peace, saying Carney 'wasn't grateful' and Canada 'lives because of the United States,' deepening bilateral tensions.
