What’s ironic is that more foreign owned brands have production plants in the US than US brands at this point. Nissan Toyota and Honda all have US plants. GM Ford and Chrysler all have plants primarily in Canada and Mexico.
All of those companies have plants both in the US & Canada (and I’m sure Mexico too, I’m just less familiar). As someone who lives in Southwestern Ontario, we have a lot of car brands, both foreign and domestic, plus the supply chains for the parts that go into those cars.
Saying the big 3 are “primarily in Canada and Mexico” is just untrue, especially comparing it to Japanese brands. They’re all heavily relying on CUSMA.
So with just a little bit of research:
You’re right. However, 3 of Fords most popular models are in fact produced in Canada. This begs the question though: do these tariffs apply to production or simply “company country of origin?”
