Nothing in the past, moreover, gave any cause to suspect ginseng’s presence so far away. Or even closer by: since antiquity, for well over a millennium, the ginseng consumed in all of East Asia had come from just one area -- the northeast mountainous lands straddling Manchuria and Korea. No one had found it anywhere else. No one was even thinking, now, to look elsewhere. The [...] [French traveler] Joseph-Francois Lafitau didn’t know this. He had been [...] visiting Quebec on mission business in October of 1715 [...]. He began to search for ginseng. [...] [T]hen one day he spotted it [...]. Ginseng did indeed grow in North America. [...]

Prior to the nuclear disaster in the spring of 2011, few outside Japan could have placed Fukushima on a map of the world. In the geography of ginseng, however, it had long been a significant site. The Edo period domain of Aizu, which was located here, had been the first to try to grow the plant on Japanese soil, and over the course of the following centuries, Fukushima, together with Nagano prefecture, has accounted for the overwhelming majority of ginseng production in the country.

Aizu’s pioneering trials in cultivation began in 1716 – by coincidence, exactly the same year that Lafitau found the plant growing wild in the forests of Canada. [...]

---

Since the 1670s the numbers of people [in Japan] clamoring for access to the drug had swelled enormously, and this demand had to be met entirely through imports. The attempt to cultivate ginseng in Aizu -- and soon after, many other domains -- was a response to a fiscal crisis.

Massive sums of silver were flowing out of the country to pay for ginseng and other drugs [...]. Arai Hakuseki, the chief policy maker [...], calculated that no less than 75% of the country’s gold, and 25% of its silver had drained out of Japan [to pay for imports] [...]. Expenditures for ginseng were particularly egregious [...]: in the half-century between 1670s through the mid-1720s that marked the height of ginseng fever in Japan, officially recorded yearly imports of Korean ginseng through Tsushima sometimes reached as much as four to five thousand kin (approx. 2.4–3 metric tons).

What was to be done? [...] The drain of bullion was unrelenting. [...] [T]he shogunate repeatedly debased its currency, minting coins that bore the same denomination, but contained progressively less silver. Whereas the large silver coin first issued in 1601 had been 80% pure, the version issued in 1695 was only 64% silver, and the 1703 mint just 50%. Naturally enough, ginseng dealers in Korea were indifferent to the quandaries of the Japanese rulers, and insisted on payment as before; they refused the debased coins. The Japanese response speaks volumes about the unique claims of the drug among national priorities: in 1710 (and again in 1736) a special silver coin of the original 80% purity was minted exclusively for use in the ginseng trade. [...]

[T]he project of cultivating ginseng and other medicines in Japan became central to the economic and social strategy of the eighth shogun Yoshimune after he assumed power in 1716. [...]

---

China and Korea were naturally eager to retain their monopolies of this precious commodity, and strictly banned all export of live plants and seeds. They jealously guarded as well against theft of mature roots: contemporary Chinese histories, for example, record that the prisons of Shenjing (present day Shenyang) overflowed with ginseng poaching suspects. So many were caught, indeed, that the legal bureaucracy couldn’t keep up. 

In 1724, the alarming numbers of suspected poachers who died in prison while awaiting trial led to the abandonment of the regular system of trials by judges dispatched from Beijing, and a shift to more expeditious reviews handled by local officials. [...]

Even in 1721. the secret orders that the shogunate sent the domain of Tsushima called for procuring merely three live plants [...]. Two other forays into Korea 1727 succeeded in presenting the shogun with another four and seven plants respectively. Meanwhile, in 1725 a Manchu merchant in Nagasaki named Yu Meiji [...] managed to smuggle in and present three live plants and a hundred seeds. [...]

Despite its modest volume, this botanical piracy eventually did the trick. By 1738, transplanted plants yielded enough seeds that the shogunate could share them with enterprising domains. [...] Ginseng eventually became so plentiful that in 1790 the government announced the complete liberalization of cultivation and sales: anyone was now free to grow or sell it.

---

By the late eighteenth century, then, the geography of ginseng looked dramatically different from a century earlier.

This precious root, which had long been restricted to a small corner of the northeast Asian continent, had not only been found growing naturally and in abundance in distant North America, but had also been successfully transplanted and was now flourishing in the neighboring island of Japan. […]

---

Colonial Americans, for their part, had developed their own new addiction: an unquenchable thirst for tea. […] This implacable need could have posed a serious problem. [...] [I]ts regular consumption was a costly habit.

Which is why the local discovery of ginseng was a true godsend.

When the Empress of China sailed to Canton in 1784 as the first ship to trade under the flag of the newly independent United States, it was this coveted root that furnished the overwhelming bulk of sales. Though other goods formed part of early Sino-American commerce – Chinese porcelain and silk, for example, and American pelts – the essential core of trade was the exchange of American ginseng for Chinese tea. [...]

---

Yoshimune’s transplantation project had succeeded to the point that Japan actually became a ginseng exporter. As early as 1765, Zhao Xuemin’s Supplement to the compedium of material medica would note the recent popularity of Japanese ginseng in China. Unlike the “French” ginseng from Canada, which cooled the body, Zhao explained, the “Asian” ginseng (dongyang shen) from Japan, like the native [Korean/Chinese] variety, tended to warm. Local habitats still mattered in the reconfigured geography of ginseng. [...]

What is place? What is time? The history of ginseng in the long eighteenth century is the story of an ever-shifting alchemical web. [...] Thanks to the English craving for tea, ginseng, which two centuries earlier had threatened to bankrupt Japan, now figured to become a major source of national wealth [for Japan] .

From a Canadian online buddie:

The LCBO (Ontario's Crown agency for the purchase, sale, and distribution of alcohol) has this on their website. The LCBO is one of the world's largest puchasers of alcoholic beverages, so I'm expecting the USian industries to feel the pinch.

#Ontario #Canada

trump seems to think he's "punishing" Canada, or maybe even Justin Trudeau, with these tariffs.

Either he's so bloody stupid he doesn't understand how tariffs work, or he's that freaking cruel he doesn't care. He isn't hurting Canada or Trudeau with his bullshit tariffs. He's hurting American companies and Americans who work there. Along with everyone who packs, ships, and exports stuff into Canada.

Seamless Automotive Parts Shipping: Best Practices for Businesses

Whether you’re a classic car enthusiast restoring a vintage beauty, a mechanic stocking up on essential parts, or a growing business shipping automotive components globally, mastering the art of safe and efficient auto parts shipping is essential. From ensuring damage-free deliveries to selecting the right freight carrier, every step matters in maintaining reliability and customer satisfaction.

Shipping Auto Parts: Ensuring a Smooth Journey

Imagine a collector who has just purchased a fully refurbished engine for their 1950s muscle car restoration project. The seller, an expert in auto parts shipping, knows that successful shipping starts with careful preparation and follows a strategic process:

Drain Fluids & Comply with Safety Regulations

Fluids in automotive parts, such as oil and coolant, can be classified as hazardous materials shipping. To comply with shipping regulations and prevent leaks, draining all fluids before packaging is crucial.

Proper Packaging & Crating

Shipping heavy auto parts / Heavy Machinery Shipping like engines or transmissions requires robust crating. To meet freight carrier requirements, the seller secures the engine inside a well-built wooden crate, using strong straps and cushioning materials to prevent movement during transit.

Accurate Freight Measurements

Getting precise weight and dimensions ensures accurate freight quotes and helps avoid unexpected shipping charges.

Selecting the Right Delivery Options

Residential deliveries may require a liftgate service, while business-to-business shipments often use loading docks for easier handling. Understanding these needs helps streamline the shipping process.

Choosing a Reliable Carrier

Not all freight carriers are equipped to handle delicate or oversized auto parts. Comparing shipping rates, transit times, and customer reviews helps select the best provider.

Insurance for High-Value Shipments

A refurbished engine is a valuable asset, and adding shippers’ interest insurance ensures protection beyond standard carrier liability.

Clear Labeling & Documentation

Attaching detailed shipping labels and the Bill of Lading (BOL) ensures smooth transit and easy tracking.

Once these steps are followed, the shipment is safely picked up, tracked, and delivered—giving customers peace of mind and a hassle-free experience.

Best Practices for Shipping Different Auto Parts

While engines require extra precautions, each type of automotive part has unique shipping considerations.

Engines & Transmissions

These heavy components need full drainage of fluids and secure crating to prevent damage and avoid hazmat fees.

Body Parts (Bumpers, Hoods, Doors, Fenders)

Fragile body parts should be packed with foam padding, bubble wrap, and sturdy boxes to prevent dents or scratches.

Wheels & Tires

Instead of shipping them loose, securing wheels and tires on a pallet with strapping ensures they stay in place and arrive undamaged.

Top 10 Imports from India to Canada in 2023: Key Insights and Economic Impact

Articles of iron or steel, worth $246.21 million, make up another significant category of imports from India. These items include steel pipes, construction materials, and various machinery components required for Canada’s construction, automotive, and energy sectors.

4. Electrical and Electronic Equipment

Canada imported electrical and electronic equipment worth $242.11 million from India in 2023.

5. Pearls, Precious Stones, Metals, and Coins

With a trade value of $186.83 million, India’s exports of precious metals and gems like gold and diamonds hold a significant position in Canadian imports. These products are essential for Canada’s jewelry and electronics industries. As demand for luxury items and high-quality materials rises, Canadian importers rely on India’s well-established gemstone and precious metals industry to supply products for commercial use and consumer markets.

6. Organic Chemicals

India supplies a substantial amount of organic chemicals, with $179.86 million worth imported by Canada in 2023. These chemicals serve as raw materials for Canada’s chemical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries.

7. Optical, Photographic, Technical, and Medical Apparatus

Canada imported approximately $116.52 million worth of optical, photographic, technical, and medical apparatus from India.

8. Rubber Products

With imports totaling $115.35 million, rubber products from India are essential for various Canadian industries.

9. Plastics

Canada imported $113.82 million worth of plastics from India in 2023. Plastics play a pivotal role in consumer and industrial products, from packaging materials to building supplies. By importing these items, Canada ensures a steady supply of affordable plastics for both everyday use and specialized industrial applications. This access to cost-effective plastics supports diverse sectors, including construction, healthcare, and consumer goods manufacturing.

10. Coffee, Tea, Mate, and Spices

India is a well-known supplier of tea, coffee, spices, and other aromatic products, and Canada imported $80.21 million worth of these items in 2023. The popularity of Indian tea and spices among Canadian consumers highlights Canada’s multicultural and diverse taste preferences. These imports also reflect the importance of India as a supplier of high-quality, exotic food products that cater to Canada’s culinary and cultural diversity.

Canada’s Import Economy and the Role of Indian Goods

Canada’s economy is robust and diverse, with a strong service sector and significant reliance on imports to meet domestic needs. In 2023, Canada’s imports of goods and services accounted for 33.71% of its GDP, underscoring the importance of trade in the country’s economic structure. While Canada’s primary trading partners include the United States, China, Mexico, and Germany, India has carved out a vital role, providing a variety of products that support Canada’s industrial, healthcare, and consumer sectors.

Canadian Importers from India

A range of prominent Canadian companies sources goods from India, ensuring that local markets have access to high-quality imported products. Some of these top importers include:

20/20 Accessory Source Ltd.

Amazon.com, Inc.

Canadian Tire Corporation Limited

Belkin, Inc.

Globe Commercial Products Inc.

These companies help meet the increasing demand for Indian products in Canada, ranging from pharmaceuticals and machinery to consumer electronics and household goods.

How to Find Importers in Canada

For businesses looking to enter the Canadian market, having access to reliable import data and a list of Canadian importers is essential. Specialized databases, such as those provided by Exportimportdata.in, offer detailed trade information, including HS codes and updated lists of Canadian importers. By utilizing these resources, companies can stay informed about market trends, compliance with trade regulations, and specific Canadian demand for imported goods.

Final Thoughts

The economic relationship between Canada and India is characterized by a steady flow of diverse goods that supports both nations’ economies. Canada’s reliance on imports from India across multiple sectors demonstrates the mutually beneficial nature of this trade relationship. Products such as pharmaceuticals, machinery, and electronic equipment from India not only help to meet Canada’s industrial and consumer demands but also contribute to Canada’s economic resilience and growth.

As Canadian industries continue to require affordable and reliable resources, India remains a crucial trade partner. Importing goods from India supports various sectors within Canada, from healthcare to manufacturing, by providing access to high-quality products at competitive prices. This trend reflects the broader dynamics of global trade, where strategic partnerships and a reliance on international supply chains play a pivotal role in strengthening national economies.

For companies and businesses interested in Canadian import data or looking to establish trade relationships with Canadian importers, resources like Exportimportdata.in provide valuable insights and up-to-date information on the Canadian market, ensuring that businesses remain informed and ready to leverage new opportunities in international trade.
