I dont really care that the ferries aren't built in BC (would be cool to make plans to do it in the future, but BC shipyards are booked up for a long time when we need the ferries yesterday), but jfc it's pathetic to threaten legal action over this lol
I understand the issue with the BC shipyards being busy. It would be great if they could expand & find the labour needed to build them here, but that takes time. However, I am disappointed in awarding them to a Chinese company when we are in the middle of a trade war with China.
didn't we start the trade war on China on behalf of American automakers?
It has been going on longer than the EV tariffs, but it remains the fault of America (mostly, plus speaking out about the treatment of Uyghurs). Goes back to Huawei and the 2 Michaels. Our auto worker unions supported the move with the EV tariffs & the EU also introduced EV tariffs on China.
