On the bright side, 99% of Canadians will be immediately priced out of driving a ICE car, so at least we won't have to worry about that anymore
No, that kinda fucks over most of us who are just getting by. If someone can't afford to buy gas how would they be able to afford an EV? We need the prices to drop to a level everyone wants to buy an EV, not make every option cripplingly expensive.
Why is that? We would be able to import the US parts needed to build cars domestically as we do today. The tariffs would affect domestic production going back to the States. Even if Canadian autos go belly up because they can't export to the States, we'd still be able to import US-made vehicles. What am I missing?
Pretty much every car built anywhere in North America has parts from at least 2 of the 3 countries, not to mention China. Sometimes parts end up going across the border multiple times before they end up as a fully assembled car.
