      if they were forwarned there may be less blowback from the US. Previous stories have said that Trump was OK with the deal so maybe Carney’s risk will pay off.

      Art. 32.10 of CUSMA requires Canada, U.S. and Mexico to notify each other about their free trade negotiations with non-market countries. The China deal is not big enough to trigger than clause but it would be within the spirit of the agreement to keep each other in the loop.

      Important context: it looks like this could mean more Teslas in Canada, just ones made in China:

      „No Chinese cars yet

      Starting March 1, 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles will be allowed to enter Canada at tariff rate of just 6.1 per cent. Officials say these vehicles are unlikely to be EVs from Chinese companies like BYD, given those cars are not yet certified by Transport Canada. That process, however, will get underway shortly.

      Instead, officials say the vehicles imported into Canada in 2026 will likely be EVs made in China by North American or Asian companies. In 2023, before the 100 per cent tariff was put in place, the official said the EVs imported into Canada were largely Teslas made in China or Volvo Polestar cars made in China.“
