Dealing with the same thing up here in Canada with canola farmers. Price peaked at $750/tonne in mid summer before the Chinese tariffs kicked in, it’s down to $600 and still dropping. It’s extremely funny to hear them get mad and demand the liberals drop all tariffs on Chinese EVs, even if they’re only saying it because they’re losing money. (I’ll take a byd though)
Yeah exactly, we are USA’s dog so we don’t allow cars even if they comply with EU safety standards, there’s no way China is retooling to pass Canada/US standards only to enter the small Canadian market.

They for sure should drop the EV tariff though, it’s such a blunder unless the gov is in the pocket of big oil or something oh wait
Oh 100%, it’s just funny because all the farmers are right wing chuds who are advocating for pro-China policy.
Base and superstructure
They don’t even sell Chinese EV’s here do they? Isn’t it a symbolic fuck you to China at the behest of Washington?
