Mayor Paul Lefebvre backs Premier Doug Ford's decision to maintain Canada's tariff on Chinese-made electric vehicles, citing the need to protect local jobs and the provincial economy.
'There's no damn way we should drop tariffs on China,' Doug Ford says
According to Lefebvre, Greater Sudbury is at the heart of Canada's emerging electric vehicle supply chain, with a strong presence of companies and resources involved in critical minerals, mining innovation, advanced battery research, and processing.
By supporting the premier's position, Lefebvre aims to protect Canadian workers and ensure long-term investments in Ontario, including Northern Ontario.
