Canada to Impose 100% Tariff on Chinese Electric Vehicles

New tariffs aim to counter perceived unfair competition and align with US and EU measures.

The tariffs will take effect on October 1, covering electric and certain hybrid vehicles.
Canada will also impose a 25% tariff on Chinese steel and aluminum starting October 15.
China has condemned the move as trade protectionism and a violation of WTO rules.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau argues the tariffs are necessary to protect Canadian industry.
The tariffs follow similar measures by the United States and the European Union.
