A Super hyper successful JAPANESE company, (Not Canadian) worth 9.2 TRILLION dollars, Profits 30 BILLION a year.
Canadians giving them 15% of the profit they make in a year.
THEY DON'T NEED OUR MONEY... Directly or indirectly to help them profit.
That 9.2 trillion is in yen. Their market cap is around 80 billion CAD
@@pin65371 Same difference.
The money is to give them more of a reason to bring their business to Canada. Or maybe you'd like them to go to a different country that will give them money. This is why idiots like you could never run a lemonade stand.
Could it be the reason why they have chosen Canada !?
Is Honda bringing in Japanese workers like how Stellantis are bringing in Koreans rather than hiring Canadians?
If that's true, I will not buy any of Stellantis EV products.
Honda's commitment to building in the markets they sell in is impressive. But the subsidies are over the top.
Wonder if they will hire any canadians.
It’s such a beautiful plant in Alliston, ON
I will not buy one , i can barely afford groceries
Why are they wasting all our money on things nobody wants?
No one will drive a Honda EV because like Tesla it will fail
Tesla isn't failing. They're losing market share to other companies.
@@Tempus64 actually they are losing customers to ICE vehicles and hybrids. The stock has lost how much in last 18 months? There is no utility to a Tesla outside a major urban center. And even there it’s hard to find an unoccupied charger. Check out the highway charger on the LA to Las Vegas route. Brining in diesel generators to charge EV’s . Or better yet wait for 2 hrs ib a lineup before you can connect and charge. No one is looking behind EV’s to see the obvious carbon footprint to mine the battery materials, transport the materials to a specific manufacturer. Do a deep dive into the footprint and the scalability of the North American electrical grids. Unachievable without significant infrastructure upgrades. USA and Canada grids and sources would never match ICE vehicle scalability.
@@Tempus64 Yes, competition is fierce for EV market shares, especially from China's BYD.

Honda is non-unionized.
Its our tax money on the line if EVs don't take-off, or, if they change significantly in technology.
$59.9 billion profits last years Honda made now Honda CEO beggars wants $ 5 billion Canadians tax payers money. Shame on them
Promises Promises, time will tell.
Wonderful. However the governments need to produce a public net zero spreadsheet to prove all elements from raw materials to final delivery in the production of a zero emission vehicle.
My informed conclusion, the vehicle will, but the carbon footprint to get there will not balance out, this fact will never be reported. A Thank you to Honda for choosing Canada.
The EV market is in a downward spiral all over the world also in Countries that have a much better infrastructure and climate than Canada. This is disastrous. 😢
My guess is that only one of the three EV battery plants Canadians are "investing" in will survive as the world "doesn't" transition to 100% EV and Trudeau will be long gone for the closures.
Negative, negative, negative! Try to think positively for God's sake.
You are absolutely right, this is only temporary until the crazy Quebec guy with unrealistic views gets voted out :)
An absolute joke
Pathetic, failed EVs no one wants and can't afford. Secret sauce
is insane stealing our money, that's very dangerous!
天皇陛下万歳🙌
