All those Canadian EV makers will be in trouble.
Canada has plants of companies that make EVs. I don't think any EV-specific parts are made in Canada, but a decline in American car manufacturing will have an impact on those plants. I don't believe those negative impacts are nearly as big a deal as the tariffs and trade war with America are, and if they meet the safety standards we have here (which I'm sure they do), that's also good. If one of the requirements was removing privacy-invading features to sell in Canada because China is scary, and it was passed as a law for all auto makers, I'd be even happier.
