      abstract = {Some World Trade Organization (“WTO”) members have lost  faith in the WTO’s multilateral trade system, perceiving  that China violates WTO obligations and principles. This  paper explores WTO members’ main complaints against China,  including that China 1) privileges domestic industry and  companies; 2) steals intellectual property (“IP”) and  forces technology transfer; and 3) misuses WTO mechanisms  like antidumping duties and developing country status. The  nature of China’s denials will be explored, as will  examples of recent WTO disputes between Canada and China  which demonstrate these tensions and nuance them. Many  tensions originate from China’s status as a mixed  socialist-market economy, which showcases the need for WTO  reform. This paper concludes by recommending policies to  alleviate some tensions in an attempt to re-legitimize the  WTO in the eyes of China’s critics, which is especially  important as Canada is leading talks for WTO reform. },
