The numbers tell a stark tale of changing perceptions. According to the survey conducted for Bloomberg, 53 percent of Canadians say the “Made in China” label has no bearing on their purchase decision. Another 15 percent view Chinese manufacturing as a positive, meaning over two-thirds of the market is now open to the idea. This represents a complete reversal from just two years ago, when 61 percent of Canadians said they would actively avoid a Chinese EV.

Have you seen American EVs? Fucking nightmare boxes funding a Nazi. Canada is making wise choices.

Yeah, thank god there are other countries than the US and China that aren't governed by dictatorial regimes. We don't need to fund Washington nor Beijing.
