Why it’s on the map

Oshawa builds about 17% of Silverado output; CAMI idled. Section 232 on Canadian vehicles/parts was announced Aug 24 to rise to 50% on Jan 1, 2027 — announced, not yet proclaimed. 2025 tariff bill $3.1B; 2026 guide $2.5–3.5B BEFORE any increase.

Government money & contracts

None.

Customers & commercial

US consumers.

Catalysts

A Canada deal before Jan 1 = biggest upside catalyst.

Risk

Parts cross border repeatedly — taxed multiple times.

Tariff durability

Jan 1, 2027 is the date that decides it — if the announced increase is actually proclaimed.
