“This is just the beginning,” Blume said. “The EV market in North America is at a turning point and we’re committed to investing across the entire region.” The deal has been signed at a time when the United States, the bigger European economies, Canada and other democratic economies are looking to shift their industries’ supply chains away from China, which dominates the EV industry, and towards friendlier nations.Article content

One of the best examples of this is Washington’s recently passed Inflation Reduction Act , which offers a US$7,500 subsidy for EVs that are made primarily from materials sourced in North America.

It makes sense we have the technology and the natural resources. That makes more tax money for us so we can fix our health system our education system and our roads?

I doubt very much vw will survive and will probably go bankrupt.

Seems like a good fit — Freeland probably has Family Roots with them as well 😉👍🏼

How much Albertans tax money will the Liberals give VW to build a plant in Quebec? Inquiring minds want to know

“Commits to considering”…That is not a commitment.

“Commits to considering” - can’t get any stronger than that! 😆
