Beijing on Tuesday announced it planned to start an anti-dumping investigation into canola imports from Canada, a week after Ottawa joined the U.S. and EU and imposed a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs and a 25% tariff on its imported steel and aluminum.

"On September 6, China lodged a request for consultations with Canada at the WTO regarding Canada's additional tariffs on electric vehicles and steel and aluminum products," a statement from China's commmerce ministry said.

"Canada has disregarded WTO rules and violated its commitments within the WTO by proposing to impose additional tariffs of 100% and 25%."

"China urges Canada to abide by WTO rules and immediately correct wrongdoings," the statement concluded.
