Amazon Rivian electric delivery vans arrive in Canada

> rumor is that it’s possible another big step forward could be coming to The Great White North. Canada may drop its 100% tariffs on China-produced electric vehicles. If that was to happen, the country could get access to all manner of high-tech, unbelievably affordable, ridiculously compelling electric vehicles

For the sake of the Ontario automotive industry and its workers, Canada would probably not eliminate the tariff on Chinese EVs.

But a significant reduction would make sense.

On the contrary, we need to drop all tariff but enforce a % of manufacturing in Canada. That way we can kick out the American manufacturers and the Chinese can take over those factories. This is the same strategy that the US did with Japanese car compagnies.

The current version of America is trying to smother the Canadian auto sector, notably Ontario and Quebec as you referenced. They're somewhat succeeding as we speak. If it's a foregone conclusion that they will continue down this route, why wouldn't Canada let Asian EVs in?

The anti Asia tariffs only make sense if Canada's current allies actually treat them like allies..
