The Canadian agent was friendly processing my paperwork and, when he was finished, he calmly stated that they were charging me a 25% tariff. I stated my case that this Chevrolet was built under the 1965 Auto Pact using a mix of Canadian and US parts. Apparently that didn’t seem to matter. All that matters is where the vehicle was assembled, and in this case my car was assembled in the US. Given that it was 1am, and I was the only one passing through so we had plenty of time to discuss and try to sort this out, I asked to see where vintage vehicles were specifically listed in the tariffs. Well, after ten minutes of multiple agents intensely scrolling through the tariffs, the agents gave up and let me proceed without a tariff. Whew!!
