Canadian firms consider local production due to U.S. tariffs

bbc.com

Canadian companies are increasingly discussing the need for local production as U.S. tariffs on imports create uncertainty. Retailers like Au Lit Fine Linens are highlighting Canadian-made products and reconsidering their reliance on U.S. suppliers. While a government report indicated little reshoring activity, some businesses are exploring closer ties within Canada. For instance, Rainhouse Manufacturing has seen increased interest from Canadian auto parts companies, signaling potential shifts in the industry. Experts caution that while there is interest in reshoring, significant challenges remain. The auto industry, in particular, is highly integrated across borders, and reshoring would require substantial investment and time.
