Canada may open to Chinese SOE capital

Canada may consider relaxing its foreign investment rules, including steps to open up to State-owned enterprises in China, in a bid to attract more capital and spur economic growth, Canadian Finance Minister Bill Morneau said.

Morneau spoke to reporters on Sunday at a cabinet meeting ahead of the G20 leaders' summit in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, in early September.

He and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will attend along with other senior Canadian officials.
