Canada set to compete with U.S. in the EV market: ‘We’re going to be more ambitious’

Chrysler parent Stellantis has partnered with LG on a $4-billion EV plant in Windsor, while Volkswagen and Tesla are also kicking Canada’s tires.

The country ranks second only to China, the world leader in battery metals refining, which is home to 75 per cent of all battery manufacturing capacity worldwide, as well as virtually all of planet’s anode and electrolyte production.The U.S. remains third, BloombergNEF said in its November report, in part because “it will still be reliant on raw material imports for batteries, especially from its free-trade partners.

To ensure Canada remains both a valued ally to the U.S. and in the same weight class, it needs to focus on “trade-enhancing infrastructure,” including expanded port facilities, to keep supply chains strong, as well as ensuring more Canadians can take part in the labour force, Harvey said. “Being right next to the United States, the most important economy in the world, is always going to be one of Canada’s greatest economic advantages,” he said.

MORE PATHETIC STUPIDITY FOR EV's- that are virtually useless in Canada due to Cold Climates plus the demise of the Power Grid using wind & solar because-READ : **Net Zero FANATICS are Willfully BLIND to the Problem of Energy Storage**-- No wind, No sun= No power AND NO STORAGE

Oh crimeminister, did you Tell the ppl how Much Power and mining iy Will take yonmake all thoses 🔋...and dis you let Them know how Much it cost to change Them when They are no good anymore...its like the Price of the car ...can be around 10 000 $ and cars catch fire often lolll

We know it’s hard for you but don’t be so naive JT? 🇨🇦’s the World’s 2nd largest country in physical size, w/a population equivalent to the State of California. There isn’t the Infrastructure here in 🇨🇦 to support EV’s till it’s created? Quit putting the cart before the horse!

Everything and Anything! But healthcare!!! As he says “I won’t be the first to blink”(regarding healthcare) A leader with no empathy for Canadians but everyone else in the world!! IMO

Let's waste time, energy, and materials on preserving the selfishness of having a personal vehicle for everyone. Maybe building smarter, more efficient communities that require less travel would be a wiser long-term option? 🤔

Most likely Canada will 'compete' with Europe with disastrous consequences of the 'green' agenda. With Liberals - fore sure.

Haha if we were making Gay pixie dust powered Unicorns I would say yes ! Sock Soy Boy could definitely beat the U.S !

Sunny ways, pie in the sky and rose coloured glasses proclamation for dear leader

🤣 Yeah Canada is a competitor to the USA. 38 million VS 332 million. Good luck
