Glacier FarmMedia — ICE canola futures were stronger Monday morning, touching their highest levels in the past month as optimism over trade negotiations with China provided some support.

Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to speak with Chinese president Xi Jinping at the sidelines of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in Malaysia this week. U.S. President Donald Trump is also attending the meetings but remains at odds with Canada after abruptly halting trade talks last week over an ad produced by the Ontario provincial government.
