Prime Minister Stephen Harper wrapped up a visit to China aimed at seeking new investments by officially announcing Saturday that Beijing will loan two of the country's prized giant pandas to Canadian zoos.
Harper visited a zoo in the southwestern city of Chongqing to say that the Chinese government is loaning the panda pair Er Shun and Ji Li to Canada for the next 10 years, Harper's press secretary Carl Vallee said.
"It is a tremendous honour for Canada to be entrusted with two of China’s national treasures," said Harper."
