Canada imposes a 100% tariff on imports of Chinese-made electric vehicles, matching the US
Canada’s government says it is imposing a 100% tariff on imports of Chinese-made electric vehicles that matches U.S. tariffs and follows similar plans announced by the European Commission.
Canada’s government on Monday announced it is imposing a 100% tariff on imports of Chinese-made electric vehicles that matches U.S. tariffs and follows similar plans announced by the European Commission.
The announcement followed encouragement by U.S. national security advisor Jake Sullivan during a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and cabinet ministers on Sunday. Sullivan is set to make his first visit to Beijing on Tuesday.
Trudeau said Canada also will impose a 25% tariff on Chinese steel and aluminum.
“Actors like China have chosen to give themselves an unfair advantage in the global marketplace,” he said.

What is currently the lowest priced EV in Canada?
LMAO well at least it seats two.
An e-bike probably.
In seriousness, you're not going to get a very valuable answer with such a broad question. They can be quite cheap, but have little range. Elaborating on what you'd want in an EV would help people provide better answers.
That’s a very valid point.
For an average vehicle I was thinking either a midsize sedan or SUV that seats up to 5.
Here's an article that's probably most helpful. Looks like the stated prices are for base models.
We have an Ioniq 5, paid $62,000 after tax, with federal rebate, and upgrades (winter tiers, extended range (520 km), floor mats, etc.). I would not consider EVs in Canada to be cheap by any standard. The base models tend to have poor range for anything more than light city driving.
For cars, Chevrolet Bolt, 40k before incentives.
