Carney set to announce plans to ‘transform’ Canada’s auto sector | LIVE

From Global News.

Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to announce a new strategy for Canada’s automobile manufacturing industry on Thursday.

Government and industry sources say that as part of the new strategy, the prime minister will announce that Ottawa is repealing EV mandates in favour of new vehicle emission standards similar to existing regulations in Europe.

Ottawa is also set to revive consumer rebates for EV purchases.

Canada’s automotive sector currently faces steep tariffs of 25 per cent from U.S. President Donald Trump, and the president has threatened further tariffs on “all goods” from Canada over a trade deal with China.
