“That potentially is on the horizon,” said CVMA President Brian Kingston in an interview with The Canadian Press. And Canada has massively invested in the EV industry, with $30 billion laid out in just the last two years for EV battery and vehicle manufacturing sites for Stellantis, Volkswagen and Honda.

And we have to tackle this, we have to protect our industry.”Kingston said Canada should consider its own anti-dumping investigation of China’s EV subsidy practices ahead of the arrival of Chinese EVs in the Canadian market.
