Business in Vancouver quoted Yves Tiberghien, director of UBC’s Institute of Asian Research, for a story on a potential partnership with China as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau travels to the country.
Jack Ma, CEO of e-commerce firm Alibaba, is expected to meet with Trudeau and other members of the G-20.
“Canadian small- and medium-sized enterprises are finding ways to export in a big way to China, and Alibaba is used to dealing directly with prime ministers and governments, as they are three times larger than Amazon.com,” Tiberghien said.
