Yea Korea should really be allowing more imports of Canadian cars. What kind of Canadian cars are there......?


If you didn't have your head up your arse then you'd know that a fair percentage of of North American GM, FORD, and I believe TOYOTA, are manufactured in Canada.


Something else I thought of- Korea already has their own division of GM- GM Daewoo so would importing GM cars from Canada make sense? Also, doesn't it make more sense logistically and economically to import Toyota from Japan? As for Ford, as someone who owned a Ford, you're better off building your own car.

Koreans are very difficult to trade with due to their racial-mercantilism. That said, from a strictly economic perspecitve, Canada still benefits by having open trade with them.

I would like the term "FTA" to be tossed in the can. Any trade agreement with the mercantilists in Seoul will not be anything near "free".
