China -based Maple Armor Group has cancelled construction of a plant in London due to uncertainty caused by possible U.S. border tariffs.

Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens is chairing the newly formed Border Mayors Alliance .

Dilkens suggested Trump ’s pronouncements are a negotiating tactic.

NEO Battery Materials will go ahead with its planned $69-million plant in Windsor regardless of tariffs.

Border Mayors Alliance's main goal is to avoid any tariffs, says Windsor Mayor Dilkens .

Auto industry, local manufacturing and greenhouse-produce industry would be devastated by tariffs, he says.

The group has already begun to identify “alternative supply chains to mitigate immediate disruptions”.
