This time, the focus is on the tariff issue between Canada and China electric vehicles.
In other words, the White House recently made a big move, announcing a "quadruple jump" in tariffs on China's electric vehicles, which directly quadrupled. Canada, the northern neighbor of the United States, has so far imposed only 6% tariffs on Chinese cars. But now, Canada's Minister of International Trade, Ms. Wu Fengyi, faced the camera and said that they were having "in-depth exchanges" with US officials, and also emphasized that "consider whether to follow up on the US matter", which can't help but make people think.
Is Canada staging a "dilemma" drama? On the one hand, there is pressure from the big brother, the United States, and on the other hand, there are considerations of its own economic interests and autonomy. Someone joked: "Canada is very American, and it is necessary to follow the trend." But some people said: "Canada, it has always had its own set, and you have to be a little brother to be a style." ”
However, jokes are jokes, and the doorway behind this is deep. Canada's choice is directly related to the temperature of China-Canada trade in the future, and it is also related to its position in the global industrial chain. After all, China is a giant in the field of electric vehicles, and its market share is no joke. If Canada stomps its foot and follows the big brother of the United States, it may not only lose a few percentage points of tariff revenue, but also a valuable opportunity to deepen cooperation with the Chinese market.
Netizens couldn't sit still, and the comment area was lively: "Canada has to be tailor-made, don't patronize and look at Lao Mei's face!" There are also rational analysis: "Canada's decision has to look at the long term, after all, its own industry and employment rate are king." ”
So, is this tariff turmoil a "drift" by Canada, or is it an ingenious layout on the international chessboard? We'll see. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think? Do you think Canada should follow the U.S. lead, or go your own way? Come on, see you in the comment section.
