Sixty-one per cent of respondents supported allowing more Chinese electric vehicles into the Canadian market, including 24 per cent who strongly backed the decision and 38 per cent who somewhat supported it.

The poll, which was conducted online and can’t be assigned a margin of error, surveyed 1,570 people from Jan. 30 to Feb. 2.

We don't make passenger EVs in Canada. There were plans for starting production by some of the American autos but they all bailed with the arrival of Trump on the scene. After taking Canadian subsidies no less. We also subsidized battery plants that were supposed to feed EV production. Now their future is in question.
