This would be a bad deal for Canada.

Point out even a single Canadian-made EV that would be affected by this.

There are no negative effects, so long as the vehicles pass safety standards. Bonus if we can enter into partnerships that would see those EVs assembled here.

And the low cost of these EVs would make vehicle ownership far easier for our young people, who already have an environment 8× more expensive (compared to their median wage) than their parents experienced at the same age.

The entire Canadian economy would be negatively effected in the long-term by such a move.

TIL a higher standard of living is a “negative effect”.

You may have (intentionally?) misunderstood my comment.

Yeah well... I'd like to do whatever Poland is doing.
