'Handsome' Trudeau promotes Canadian lobster on Tmall

With growing popularity in China, Canada Pime Minister Justin Trudeau hit the headlines again during his eight-day visit to China for promoting lobsters from Canada at Alibaba's Tmall, one of China's most popular online shopping platforms, in Hangzhou on Saturday.

Trudeau and Alibaba founder Jack Ma announced the launch Saturday of a Canadian-styled online shop on the Tmall platform at the Chinese firm's offices in Hangzhou.

The shop will provide more convenience for Chinese consumers as they can directly buy specialty products from Canada.
