I don't know what a "world trade organization dispute consultation" is, tbh. Also wondering about the history of the WTO, if it's broader in distribution of power, or if it's one of those things where it's got the power scales tipped toward the west using it as a bullying apparatus.

or if it’s one of those things where it’s got the power scales tipped toward the west using it as a bullying apparatus.

I'm guessing it's this. Canada is hoping to use the WTO to bully China and destroy their economy, like America's tiny lapdog, they think they're much bigger and tougher than they are.
