Fast forward to today, and China is on track to become the world\u2019s largest economy and home to the single largest and fastest-growing middle-class of 350 million people \u2013 10 times the size of Canada\u2019s entire population.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As China\u2019s economic growth reaches new heights, countries across the globe are scrambling to keep up and capture other emerging markets \u2013 and Canada is no exception. Nationally, Canada already conducts $84 billion in bilateral trade with China.
