With a minimum of googling, it seems that Honda already makes this vehicle in both the U.S. and Canada. They appear to be adding shifts to the U.S. to boost production 30% while lowering it elsewhere. So "Yay" I guess. It's one of the few situations where the tariffs can work short term. In most cases, shifting production from another country to the U.S. is a multi-year investment that tariffs won't significantly impact because they are changing too often to drive such long-term decisions.
>The announcement came less than a month after Honda denied a report in the Japanese media that President Trump’s tariffs would force it to pull back in Canada.<p>Honda in Japan made a legally true statement to Nikkei. If they lied, these executives would be facing criminal charges. We now know this was true.<p>Honda Canada lied saying this was untrue. To the benefit of the Liberals during an election. Interfering in the election as an unregistered third party. Probably violating CSA laws as well; almost certainly OSC.
