Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has announced his proposed “auto pact” with the United States that he says will eliminate U.S. tariffs on autos and increase auto production for both countries.
Poilievre said at an announcement in Windsor, Ont., on March 15 that the Conservatives’ proposed “tariff-free auto pact” would double production of automobiles in Canada and give Canada leverage in trade talks with the United States.
