in October, including a 100% surtax on all ********-made EVs and 25% on steel and aluminum imports.

The decision to impose retaliatory duties comes after an “anti-discrimination probe, which found out that Canada’s restrictive measures against some ******** products have disrupted normal trade order and harmed the legitimate rights and interests of ******** enterprises,” it added.

Canada announced tariffs on ******** goods last August following similar duties being imposed by the U.S. and the European Union against ********-made EVs and other products. The Western governments say China’s subsidies give its industry an unfair advantage.
