Tariffs with no alternative in Canada for affordable EVs. Sounds like a giveaway to American car manufacturers. Maybe we should subsidize our own EV and battery industries instead of forcing Canadians to buy cars they don’t want.
Apparently we’re not doing it in a meaningful enough way if Chinese EVs are going to be an issue. The other problem is that China will just tit-for-tat with a tariff or restriction of their own and nothing will be gained.
Not nothing. They need the trade more than we do. I don’t really trust them to be world hyperpower, basically.
We’re doing enough as far as I know, although we’re definitely late to do it.
(The sponsorship of battery and car plants is actually aggressive enough that people question whether it just amounts to corporate welfare. I’m surprised you didn’t see all the news stories)

TBF we are already doing that. I don’t know if PP has specified he’d continue it, though.
