Chinese here. With the news of Canada possibly fixing the trade relationship under Mark Carney, I want to give my perspective on the EV situation.I see many Canadians excited for Chinese EVs (BYD, Xiaomi, etc.) not because of the car, but because they hate Elon Musk. I own a model Y here, but I have been in almost every Chinese EV you can imagine. They are amazing machines. But using them as a "weapon" against Musk is pure hypocrisy.If you want to buy a Chinese EV to defend "Western values" or to "punish" Elon, then you are a goon. Why? Because you ignore the reality of how these cars are made so cheap.We all know the truth, don't act oblivious. People all over the world, including China, are taken advantage of to make your iPhone, your clothes, and yes, these EVs. You cannot claim the moral high ground by switching from a US billionaire to Chinese factory owners whom you don't even bother to research. You are just choosing a different side of the same coin.If you want a Xiaomi SU7 because the software is better or the price is lower, that is great. We want you to love our cars. But don't "wear a cape" and pretend it is a moral choice.Leave your ego and your Musk obsession aside. Buy the car because it is a good car. If you use our products just to feel better about your politics, you are only lying to yourself.I hope to see our cars on your roads soon, for the right reasons. via /r/EVCanada https://ift.tt/hzgDxVR
