With a minimum of googling, it seems that Honda already makes this vehicle in both the U.S. and Canada. They appear to be adding shifts to the U.S. to boost production 30% while lowering it elsewhere. So "Yay" I guess. It's one of the few situations where the tariffs can work short term. In most cases, shifting production from another country to the U.S. is a multi-year investment that tariffs won't significantly impact because they are changing too often to drive such long-term decisions.

Hopefully Canada slaps a tarriffs on companies that relocate production.

When people refer to "tariffs," they're talking about when a country puts a tax on imports coming from a particular country. Are you saying Canada should tax Honda specifically (and not, for example, other car manufacturers like Toyota)?

This. That's so stupid, what once each and every country has tariffs ?
