    But they sell cheap EVs, aren’t threatening to invade, and Musk’s Swasticars can’t compete. It’s just economic pragmatism.

    Use the Chinese EVs while building up local infrastructure. If Canada wants native production it won’t happen overnight, but if it doesn’t make a deliberate and significant push for it it’s simply never going to happen at all and you’ll always be importing from, and therefore dependent on, someone.

        Canada has literally participated in the invasion of multiple other nations in living memory. Frankly the CPC should refuse to engage with Canada on moral principal.
