🇨🇦 Tariffs on Chinese EVs: Dr. Ian Lee, Carleton University
Canada has followed the U.S. by imposing massive tariffs—100%—on electric vehicles from China.
The stated goal? To protect Canadian auto jobs and domestic manufacturing.
But does this strategy still make sense in a rapidly globalizing EV market?
In this episode of Canada Talks Electric Cars, Professor Ian Lee from Carleton University’s Sprott School of Business breaks down the real economic impact of these tariffs and what they could mean for Canada’s EV future.
🔹 Are tariffs protecting Canadian jobs—or isolating Canada from affordable, high-quality EVs?
🔹 How might Donald Trump’s plans to move auto production to the U.S. affect Canada’s auto sector?
🔹 Could cutting off Chinese EV imports slow down Canada’s transition to electric mobility?
Join us for a candid, fact-based discussion about the economics, trade policy, and political realities shaping the future of electric vehicles in North America.
