Various circles and public opinions in Canada responded positively to Hu's visit. They said they believed the trip had played an important role in promoting Canada-China relations, according to Yang.

During the G20 summit, President Hu delivered an important speech entitled "Work in unity for the future," comprehensively introduced China's view on the current world economy, appealed to all parties to continue to carry forward the coordination spirit, and push the world economy into a new stage of vigorous, sustainable and balanced growth as early as possible.

Hu presented a three-point proposal for this aim.

First, all countries need to turn the G20 from an effective mechanism for tackling the global financial crisis to a major platform for promoting international economic cooperation.

Secondly, efforts should be made to accelerate the establishment of a new international financial order that is fair, equitable, inclusive and well-managed.

And last, all countries should promote the building of an open and free global trade system.

"The complex world economic situation makes it necessary for the G20 to play a guiding role. We need to take a longer-term perspective and shift the focus of the G20 from coordinating stimulus measures to coordinating growth, from addressing short-term contingencies to promoting long-term governance and from passive response to proactive planning," Hu said.

These views were widely agreed and responded by leaders of countries participating in the summit.

Hu said efforts should be made to keep the organic unity of the vigorous, sustainable and balanced growth.

A vigorous growth is the foundation of the world economy, a sustainable growth is the aim, while a balanced growth is the means, he said.

President Hu's speech was widely believed by leaders attending the summit as objective, balanced, profound, sharp-sighted, and to the point, giving out a right direction for development of the world economy.

On the sidelines of the summit, President Hu also met respectively his U.S., Russian, Indonesian, South Korean counterparts Barack Obama, Dmitry Medvedev, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Lee Myung-bak, and British and Japanese prime ministers David Cameron and Naoto Kan. They exchanged in-depth views on further boosting political mutual trust, bilateral ties, pragmatic and mutually beneficial cooperation, and the healthy and stable development of the G20. The meetings have vigorously pushed forward China's ties with the countries.

Yang said President Hu's visit to Canada and attendance of the G20 summit had lifted the China-Canada strategic partnership, boosted the G20's healthy development and the world economy's full-scale recovery.

China is willing to further deepen China-Canada ties, and make joint efforts with other G20 members in building a better future for the world economy, said the foreign minister.
