Video: Ottawa reacts to China suspending imports from Canadian pork company

Canada’s agriculture minister has confirmed a Chinese state news agency report that China has halted imports from a Canadian company after food safety issues were detected in one batch of pork. Marie Claude Bibeau says one shipment has been halted after traces of a growth hormone were found by Chinese inspectors. The move will likely fuel speculation that China is retaliating against Canada for arresting a Chinese tech executive.
