Canada Closes $1.08B Ship Deal with China Using Yuan Instead of Dollars 🇨🇳

Canada–China $1.08B Ship Deal — Paid in Yuan, Not Dollars<br /><br />Canada has just sent shockwaves through global finance with a move no one expected. In a historic $1.08 billion deal, Canada ordered six advanced container ships from China — but here’s the twist, payment will not be in U.S. dollars. Instead, Canada chose to settle the contract in Chinese yuan. This decision shakes the very foundation of the global dollar order, a system that has reigned for almost eight decades. Canada’s choice highlights China’s dominance in shipbuilding, the yuan’s rise as a global trade currency, and the cracks forming in U.S. financial power. From Washington’s alarm to Beijing’s celebration, Canada’s move has triggered debates in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Is this the beginning of a multipolar financial era? Join us as we break down Canada’s ship deal, yuan’s rise, and the ripple effects shaking the world.
