CWB Association Statement on Tariff Uniformity
Milton, ON - The CWB Association supports domestic policies that maintain tariff uniformity with the United States on Chinese electric vehicles (EV) and steel products.
Canada's welding and joining industry recognizes the importance of our trade relationship with the United States and how vital it is to the Canadian economy. In response to the Department of Finance consultation on EV tariffs, we hope the Government of Canada swiftly follows the US policy and matches their tariff regime on Chinese EVs and steel products.
Furthermore, we encourage the Government of Canada to support the Canadian welding industry's role in the development of our EV manufacturing plants. Introducing the appropriate tariffs will ensure fair competition for Canadian steel fabricators and manufacturers.
