    You generally don’t want to incentivize the practice of dumping since its goal is putting competition out of business.

      Don’t really care about the competition. I care about having cheap access to EVs. If the competition can’t compete, then fuck em. That’s not my problem.

        EVs won’t be cheap for long if there’s no competition.

          Is there any domestically produced competition in Canada? The only one a search returns is still a concept (not yet commercially available). Everything else looks to be imported from elsewhere?

      Canada doesn’t really have its own automaker. We do have American subsidiaries of Ford, etc. and if they’re gonna go under we’ll deal with that when it happens.
