A Canadian premier sent a letter to Prime Minister Carney calling for the cancellation of tariffs on electric vehicles in China: "The more tariffs exist for a day, the damage will deepen."

According to Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) on December 12, Canadian Governor Genève wrote to Canadian Prime Minister Carney last weekend, asking the federal government to cancel the 100% tariff on Chinese electric vehicles.

Canada last year implemented the electric car tariff in parallel with the United States, which the country had previously argued was aimed at protecting its automotive industry. But Geneva said China’s counter-measures against Canada have led to a sharp drop in Canadian oil seed prices and the pork-meat industry has suffered a serious injury. CBC that a pork-meat producer in Manitoba that it would be affected annually by a negative impact of $19 million ($5.1 yuan) per year. Statistics in Saskatchewan, Canada’s largest seed-producing province, more intuitively reflect this situation. In August, the province’s exports to China fell to $96 million, down 76% from the same period last year, and China was the province’s second-largest

“Tariffs exist every day, and the damage to the producers in the grassland province is deepened.”Kinev said in the letter that Canada’s trade policy must be balanced between long-term industrial goals and national security, with current economic realities and national responsibilities for developing Canadian regional economies.

Although there is still debate in Canadian politics over electric vehicle tariffs, the attitude of Canadians towards electric vehicle tariffs is changing. Bloomberg quoted data from a poll on the 13th as saying that only 44% of Canadians support the tariff, which is significantly lower than last year's 63%, and the proportion of opponents has increased from 27% to 47%.

Currently, Canada's economy is severely under pressure due to multiple factors such as U.S. tariffs. In order to break the trade dilemma, Canadian local governments have begun to take action. In September, Canadian Congressman Cody Blois accompanied Saskatchewan Governor Moi to visit China to promote China to cancel import tariffs on Canadian rapeseed. Bloomberg reported that Canada is seeking to strengthen relations with China and India due to the very unstable state of trade negotiations with the United States. This week, Canadian Foreign Minister Anand will visit New Delhi, India, Mumbai, Singapore and Hangzhou, China.

According to the Canadian News Agency, Canadian Finance Minister Champagne's office said that it is currently evaluating the decision to impose tariffs on electric vehicles. Although it did not disclose when the assessment will begin and end, Prime Minister Carney said that Canada is trying to deepen relations with China in some areas such as agriculture and climate.
