Canadian beef exporters have regained access to the Hong Kong market following a meeting between Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the former British colony's chief executive.
In a news release, Mr. Harper said that regaining access to Hong Kong sends a strong signal to all Asian markets that Canadian beef is safe.
Hong Kong is a key market for the Canadian agriculture sector and is worth more than half a billion dollars for Canada's farmers and processors.
