U.S. Trade Representative: Canada Will Regret the Entry of Chinese Electric Vehicles into the Market!
On January 17, Reuters reported: "During Karney's visit to China, China and Canada reached multiple trade agreements. The Chinese side will reduce the tariff on Canadian canola from 85% to 15% before March, and open up visa-free entry for Canadian citizens; Canada allows 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles to enter Canada, with tariffs reduced to 6.1%. The U.S. strongly opposed this, and the transportation minister and trade representative have repeatedly warned Canada that it will regret its decision, worrying about China's expanding influence in North America, and their attitude towards Canada's automotive sector has also become more hardened."
[Smart] The United States is once again lecturing Canada, acting like a "parent scolding a child"! Bringing up the old grudge of the 1812 U.S.-Canada conflict, Canada has endured as a "U.S. vassal" for a century. The shackles of 77% of exports relying on the U.S. should be broken. Karney merely slightly lowered the tariff on Chinese electric vehicles, and the U.S. jumped up shouting regret. Why not mention their own high tariffs for trade protection? On one hand, they are milking Canada's economy, and on the other hand, they fear Canada finding new ways forward. This hegemonic double standard is well played, but they should check if 90% of Canadians do not want to be the 51st state of the U.S.!
