Poilievre's auto plan seeks tariff-free U.S. access by linking Canadian vehicle exports to imports of U.S./Mexican-made vehicles into Canada.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has proposed a new auto plan to secure tariff-free access to the U.S. market by requiring a one-for-one production-to-sales ratio, allowing Canadian-made vehicles to be sold in the U.S. duty-free if manufacturers also sell U.S.- or Mexico-made vehicles in Canada.
The plan aims to increase Canadian auto production to two million vehicles annually within a decade, aligns with U.S. emissions standards and Chinese tariffs, and includes eliminating the GST on Canadian-made vehicles, ending federal EV subsidies, and banning vehicles with software linked to China or Russia.
The proposal comes amid ongoing 25% auto tariffs on both sides of the border since April 2025 and emphasizes Canada’s reliance on the U.S. market, where 90% of Canadian-made vehicles are sold.
El plan de automóviles de Poilievre busca un acceso libre de aranceles a los Estados Unidos vinculando las exportaciones de vehículos canadienses a las importaciones de vehículos fabricados en los Estados Unidos / México a Canadá.
