Australia seeks better Canada trade ties and direct steamship links

Australian customs minister Mr Tudor pressed for a reciprocal tariff with Canada as talks proceed. He heard a strong case from a butter and frozen meat export proponent noting New Zealand benefits from Canada’s space and Vancouver line disruption. New Zealand shipped 3,500 boxes of butter to Canada while Australia lost its shipments. Tudor warned direct service needs tariff parity to work and cited Canadian duties: six cents per pound on Australian meat and eight cents on butter versus New Zealand’s four and six. Also mentions drydock prep at Hays Creek and Mr Dow’s return.
