If you take government money with caveats, you need to stand by those agreements.

Wasn't going to buy a stellantis box anyhow. Now for sure.

Are US companies building EVs in Canada?
Nope, they're baling out like Stellantis and adding tariffs so they cost us more for the ones they do.
Fuck 'em.
Drop the tariff if China will build some here.

Everyone knows the fix is in, confronting this fact by siding with China will only make our position even more precarious. We are not ready and Carney is stalling for time. A year more of CUSMA is what is on the table, we ruin that if we play our hand now. Why rush? We will be retooling our entire economy from the ground up, best to not do it all at once but as much as we can handle without stalling the economy.

Even Tesler moved production to China, because they see it is cost effective.

BC mills have been courting the Japanese market for decades. unfortunately this 'surge' is ubt a fart in a hurricane. Celebrations are a little overblown. We need to be looking at doubling it and more.
It is entirely regrettable that the US market chooses to fuck the consumer solely to hurt Canada.

Why would anyone go now? Treated like terrorists, fingerprinted and everything is searched?
