Auto parts in Canada
When vehicles and parts cross the border several times before final assembly, every tariff compounds.
The impact
North American auto production is deeply integrated. A single part can cross the Canada and U.S. border several times before it ends up in a finished vehicle, which is why U.S. tariffs on vehicles and auto parts hit Canadian suppliers so hard.
Tier 1, 2 and 3 suppliers, tool and die shops, mould makers and the logistics firms that serve them in Windsor, Oshawa, Waterloo Region, London and the GTA are seeing schedule changes, price pressure and slower payments.
