In a recent trade agreement, Canada and China have agreed to reduce tariffs on certain goods to benefit citizens of both nations. China will lower tariffs on Canadian agricultural products, while Canada will decrease tariffs on electric vehicles (EVs) from China.

This agreement presents an opportunity for Canadians to purchase more affordable, innovative EVs while boosting Canadian agricultural exports. To maximize the environmental benefits of this trade deal, Canada could invest in solar energy solutions like agrivoltaics and home solar carports to power the growing number of EVs.
