If Canadians were in the driver’s seat, tariffs imposed by Ottawa on Chinese electric vehicles (EV) would have an easier road to the Canadian market.

    We just need to make it so they are built here. To hell with the US car companies.

      I’ve heard there are a few Canadian carmaking employees looking for work. Wink-wink nudge-nudge.

      Unlikely to happen because that would mean they would cost as much as other EV imports and Canada does not buy enough cars to justify the investment. The only reason why the auto sector exists in Canada is to feed the US market.
