GM reported a $1.1 billion tariff loss in a single quarter. Trump's auto tariffs were supposed to protect American manufacturing. GM's own earnings prove the opposite.
In this video, Noah Tremblay breaks down the full strategic picture behind the North American auto trade war — why GM and Stellantis absorbed between $4 and $5 billion in combined losses in 2025, why three thousand Brampton jobs moved to Illinois despite $660 million in Canadian taxpayer subsidies, and why China is now contractually positioned to build electric vehicles forty minutes from Detroit. The CUSMA renewal deadline of July 1st, 2026 is approaching with no formal negotiation framework in place. Canada's ambassador to Washington put GM's own earnings report on the table and told American officials: you think you are hitting us. You are shooting yourself. The data behind that statement cannot be argued with.
If this gave you a framework you couldn't find anywhere else, share it with someone who needs to understand what is actually happening in North America right now. The clock on CUSMA is running — and the next few weeks will determine whether this ends with a deal, or whether Ingersoll and Brampton become the permanent price of a trade war nobody finished calculating before it started.
