真正的破冰deal 来了，先49000辆EV

[红红枫叶]

• Summary

• Canada to allow Chinese EV imports at 6.1% tariff, Carney says
• Says Canada expects China to lower canola tariff
• Canada welcomes further Chinese investment

BEIJING, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Canada and China have struck an initial trade deal that will slash tariffs on electric vehicles and canola, Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Friday, as both nations promised to tear down trade barriers while forging new strategic ties.

Canada will initially allow in up to 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles at a tariff of 6.1% on most-favoured nation terms, Carney said after talks with Chinese leaders including President Xi Jinping. He did not specify a time period.
That compares with the 100% tariff on Chinese electric vehicles imposed by the government of former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in 2024, following similar U.S. penalties. In 2023, China exported 41,678 EVs to Canada.

Under the new deal, Carney said, Canada expects China will lower tariffs on its canola seed by March 1, to a combined rate of about 15%.
"This change represents a significant drop from current combined tariff levels of 84%," he said, adding that China was a $4 billion canola seed market for Canada.
Canada also expects its canola meal, lobsters, crabs and peas to have anti-discrimination tariffs removed from March 1, until at least year-end, he added.

"This is a return to levels prior to recent trade frictions, but under an agreement that promises much more for Canadians," Carney told reporters in Beijing.
Trudeau had justified his tariff on the grounds that there was an unfair global market edge for Chinese manufacturers benefiting from state subsidies, a scenario that was threatening to Canada's domestic industry.
"For Canada to build its own competitive EV sector, we will need to learn from innovative partners, access their supply chains, and increase local demand," Carney said.

The deals will unlock nearly $3 billion in export orders for Canadian farmers, fish harvesters and processors, Carney said.
In a joint statement announced by China's state-run Xinhua news agency, the two countries pledged to restart high-level economic and financial dialogue, boost two-way trade and investment, and strengthen cooperation in agriculture, oil, gas and green energy.
Carney said Canada will double its energy grid over the next 15 years, adding that there are opportunities for Chinese partnership in investments including offshore wind.
He also said Canada was scaling up its LNG exports to Asia and will produce 50 million tonnes of LNG each year - all destined for Asian markets by 2030.

CHINA 'MORE PREDICTABLE'​

"Given current complexities in Canada's trade relationship with the U.S., it's no surprise that Carney's government is keen to improve the bilateral trade and investment relationship with Beijing, which represents a massive market for Canadian farmers," said Beijing-based Trivium China's Even Rogers Pay.
"Meanwhile, it's difficult for Washington to criticise Carney for striking a beneficial trade deal when Trump himself just did so in October."
U.S. President Donald Trump has also imposed tariffs on some Canadian goods and suggested the longtime U.S. ally could become his country's 51st state.
China, similarly hit by Trump's tariffs, is also keen to cooperate with a Group of Seven nation in a traditional sphere of U.S. influence.
"In terms of the way our relationship has progressed in recent months with China, it is more predictable, and you see results coming from that," Carney said when asked if China was a more predictable and reliable partner than the U.S.
Carney also said he had discussions with Xi about Greenland. "I found much alignment of views in that regard," he said.
Trump has in recent days revived his claim to the semi-autonomous Danish territory as NATO members scrambled to counter U.S. criticism that Greenland is under-protected.

SINO-U.S. RIVALRY​

Analysts say the rapprochement could reshape the political and economic context in which Sino-U.S. rivalry unfolds, although Ottawa is not expected to dramatically pivot away from Washington.
"Canada is a core U.S. ally and deeply embedded in American security and intelligence frameworks," said Sun Chenghao, a fellow at Tsinghua University's Centre for International Security and Strategy.
"It is therefore very unlikely to realign strategically away from Washington."
But if Ottawa took a more pragmatic and autonomous economic policy toward China, Beijing could point to it as evidence that U.S.-led decoupling was neither inevitable nor universally accepted among America’s closest partners, he added.

哈哈哈哈。
加拿大降低了EV关税，
中国依然维持对菜籽油的关税壁垒。

果然收获满满，不虚此行。

特斯拉算是中国的 EV？

卡尼灵活，干得不错，给一部分电动车配额，即保护了自己汽车产业，又解决了其他货物的关税问题。

海关就是这么认定。

所以目前的新闻导向有问题，如果加拿大说给中国产的Tesla降关税，各方面的反应就没那么激烈了（福特省长也不会怒怼了）。因为没人认为特斯拉会影响加拿大汽车工业。

要不2023年从中国进口的4万辆EV是啥？

你在加拿大见过BYD或者小米吗？如果BYD和那些真正的中国EV想进入加拿大市场，我估计至少还有等两年。。。

见不得加中关系变好。看把路边一条急的。
