摘　　要：开始于 1 96 0年的中加小麦贸易起因于三年困难时期 ,最初并未做长期打算 ,仅为能度过饥荒 ,但不久却变为长期贸易。这是周恩来提出的“以贸易为触角 ,先开展贸易关系 ,进一步发展外交关系”的思想的运用。以小麦贸易促进两国恢复正常贸易 ,并进而促进了政治关系的缓和 ,最终实现建交。在中加小麦贸易的过程中 ,周恩来还利用小麦贸易以及中加关系的改善来促进缓和中美关系 ,特别是利用小麦贸易中与加拿大前农业部长阿尔文·汉密尔顿建立起来的友好关系 ,请他来调解中美关系 ,不仅促进了中美贸易的恢复 ,也促使中国重返西方贸易市场。因此 ,中加粮食贸易对中国无论是政治或经济意义都很重大。China started to buy Canadian wheat to deal with the urgent need of grain when suffered a severe natural disaster in 1960. However, late Premier Zhou Enlai put it into a long-term trade to pursue both economic and political goals so as to break through the American blockade and containment of China. It led to Canada's recognition of China and many Western countries followed the suit in the 1970's. In addition, Zhou Enlai also established a good relationship with Alvin Hamilton, former Agricultural Minister, in the process of Sino-Canadian wheat trade and asked him to mediate between China and the United States. It finally resulted in a reconciliation of Sino-US relations.
