Yes but Canada has no EV industry... so, even if it's just temporarily to provide Canadians with an option while telling American companies to suck it... what's the problem?
Are we really going to say we don't to business with China because of anti-competitive practices when we have been doing business with American doing WAY worse all along?
It’s not just US companies harmed.
One also would think more long term and hope for better relations with Canada and USA having more cooperative relations especially as it pertains to an auto market.
Regardless harming your European allies to spite the US isn’t ideal either.
Who else is harmed in this case?
Why? this is exactly what we had and Trump destroyed... why would be trust them again? ever?... even if we go back to a trade agreement, there should be hard guarantees in place to be able to trust the USA again in pretty much anything
Why would that be the case at all? I am all for opening the Canadian market to European auto makers (very few make it here)... Most people who can afford it never buy American cars anyway as they are fairly low in everything when compared to Asian or European brands.
Why would reducing tariffs on Chinese EVs harm European allies when we already barely allow them into the Canadian market?
