North American EV Tax Credit Signed into Law
August 17, 2022
Yesterday, President Joe Biden signed the new North American EV Tax Credit into law.
It will provide Americans with rebates for the purchase of electric vehicles assembled right here in Windsor-Essex—and that is a game-changer and great news for our auto workers.
Team Canada pushed back and defeated an original proposal that would have excluded EVs built in Canada.
Prime Minister Trudeau was relentless in telling US leaders the devastating effects this would have on manufacturing communities on both sides of the border.
Now, Canada and the US will continue to work together to create jobs, fight climate change and strengthen North American trade and supply chains. Our government will always stand up for our auto workers and maintain our unique trading relationship with the United States.
