Just in. Major development on #EVs. 50,000 Chinese EVs to hit Canadian market at almost no tariff.

We sold about 150,000 EVs last year. That is significant.

Now let's see what happens to Chinese EV plants here and EV sales targets.

20% of Canada’s imports come from places that don’t price carbon. Same for our export destinations.

#Trade and #climate policies increasingly overlap—but mostly outside the US.

#Canada’s challenge? Capitalize on clean competitive edge as it expands new trade routes, while keeping US ties intact.

Sooo… this came out:
