I'll be rude/bold enough to say that Canada's ability to argue around 'in-country' made goods has been eroded for decades;

I will admit I'm going to point to a specific example; Canadian Bike makers have been able for at least a decade to get an unpainted frame from Taiwan/China/Etc, components from wherever, but so long as they painted the frame in canada and did final assembly in Canada... 'Made in Canada' alongside all of the tariff exemptions that came with that.

> But from Canada's point of view: they have already been threatened enough that im sure those remaining ford,gm and stellantis jobs might be gone eventually...

Guess you didn't hear about Brampton in the news, the Stellantis plant there might be on the chopping block...
