Canada threatens new tariffs on U.S. exports if it approves EV tax credit

Hates Justin too.

Canada is threatening a retaliatory barrage of punitive tariffs and to reverse a number of dairy-related trade concessions if the United States goes through with its controversial plan to encourage the development and sale of U.S.-made electric vehicles.

In a stern letter dated Friday to key members of the Senate leadership, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland and Trade Minister Mary Ng promised to impose tariffs on a raft of U.S.-made products if President Joe Biden’s tax credit proposal becomes law.

They said the proposal amounts to a 34 per cent tariff on electric vehicles assembled in Canada and violates the terms of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA.

I think Biden’s handlers hate Justin. Who doesn’t?  Perhaps a lecture on the need to legislate mandatory transgender EV Battery assembly would help open US eyes. Looks like the Dairy cartel stands to gain, so there’s that.
