Projects like Project Arrow, an all-Canadian EV prototype, show the country’s long-term commitment to sustainable innovation.
Canada’s Importance in North American Auto Production
Thanks to the 1965 Auto Pact and modern trade agreements, Canada remains tightly integrated with U.S. auto manufacturing. Ontario remains the heart of Canadian auto production with skilled labour, parts suppliers, and state-of-the-art assembly plants.
