$46B investment undermined by Ontario/Ford energy policy that was always meant to sabbotage EVs, and no EV production yet. This is an absurdly high subsidy level, and the 157k jobs is entire auto industry. Ford should go back to right wing shilling that you don’t want a better car that EVs provide.

Ford would need to outline what automakers have committed to producing EVs or batteries by when. There has only been backtracking on investment so far, afaik.

"If the federal government removes its tariffs against Chinese-made EVs, you will contradict and undermine months of engagement with U.S. officials and lawmakers about the need to protect and enhance our highly integrated cross-border automotive supply chains

While I/we may not be aware of any secret auto sector deals/commitments, I know there has been zero progress on “protecting our auto sector integration”.

ONLY a trade deal with China will get the US to “progress” on its extortionist demonism, and get our other “allies” to invest in Canada as well.

Whether dressed up as a Canola farmer giveaway, Ford needs to champion auto workers instead of US sycophancy, and gaslighting on trade progress. Pig fucker needs to beg for Chinese investment in Ontario’s workforce, or provide investment deals from any other country at all, if he’s claiming progress is right around the corner, and this is the nudge to progress. Gaslighting that doing nothing will still make everything turn out alright, has to end.

Canada is world’s 7th largest auto market tied with UK. This is in overpriced vehicles, not just $ size. If other countries want a slice of it, they need to pay up. It’s not a matter of pretending US aligned countries are the good guys. Especially not any more.
