Honda's reported US shift “an attack” on Canada's auto sector, Carney says

Honda’s reported plans to switch some car production from Canada to the United States is being condemned by federal party leaders as “an attack” on the country’s auto sector.

Speaking at a campaign stop in St-Eustache, Que., Liberal Leader Mark Carney said the Honda news “gives us a sense of the scale of the attack on our auto sector and other sectors” as a result of U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war. He said he has had a number of conversations with CEOs of automakers in Canada and global CEOs, adding that “we are very seized with the issues” impacting the industry.

Meanwhile, conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said, “Trump deserves nothing but condemnation for the unfair targeting of Canada.”

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said the Honda news is “deeply concerning.”

“This is potentially going to impact thousands of jobs in Canada and have a devastating impact on the automobile sector for the long term,” he said during a news conference in Montreal.
