Nope, not nuts.

Tariffs are to protect industry. Last I checked, there are no plants in Canada building brand new 1968 cars.

So, just more proof that it's a massive Liberal tax grab and nothing to do with trade protection.

could it be left in states in secure storage to see if this bs calms down a bit ?

How and who reversed the decision? Great news for the car owner.

'The director of operations at Border Brokers, said that a "classic car" classification that could be used to exempt the vehicle from the tariffs was instead used to apply the duties'. This had nothing to do with government legislation or elected members, this is your neighbor, the government bureaucrat writing a memo in 'gov't speak' so no one understands it. Happens in every department, every day. How can the working stiff at the border possibly know what the kingdom builder is deciding to publish today.
