So China doesn't care about 2 million car sales a year?

You know we can tell China to just fuck off? Right?

And the population of Canada is over 41 million.

The USA told China to fuck off and look what that got them.

Antagonizing China isn't a smart move after decades of relying on it for everything. First, invest into domestic production, then reduce imports from China. Otherwise you're just shooting yourself in the foot.
