Japanese Automakers in Canada 50 Years in the Making
Japanese-brand automakers first arrived in Canada back
in 1965 – emerging global players eager to establish their
place in North America’s car market. Ever since, the auto
industry in Canada and around the world has undergone
constant and dramatic change: including oil shocks,
stricter regulations, trade policy, intense competition,
currency fluctuations and disruptive technologies, just
to name a few. Fortunately, Japanese automakers were
ready, resilient and up to the challenge.
With rising sales and market share, the first Japanese
auto manufacturing plant in Canada opened in Alliston in
1986, and others followed soon after. Since 1965, almost
18 million Japanese-brand vehicles have been sold to
Canadians, while over 20 million vehicles have been built
in Canada since 1986.

With a pragmatic belief in “building where you
sell,” Canada’s Japanese-brand automakers have
steadily strengthened their commitment to the
Canadian auto industry, creating high-quality
jobs in distribution, sales, service, manufacturing,
exporting, and importing motor vehicles and auto
parts. In fact, we build more vehicles than we sell,
and export more than we import.

Putting Canada inthe Driver’s Seat The automotive industry is inextricably linked to economic
prosperity in Canada. Recent reports have identified
Canada’s automotive industry as the second largest
manufacturing industry, adding an approximate $18 billion
a year to GDP, $86 billion a year to Canadian exports, and
employing over 126,000 people directly and half a million
people indirectly. Yet, the market is in flux. Consumer
interests are changing. The market is shifting rapidly
towards light trucks, SUVs, and crossovers. Despite the
challenges, Japanese-brands are soldiering on with their
long-term commitment to build a globally competitive,
economically robust and environmentally friendly auto
industry in Canada.

Japanese-brand automanufacturing jobs in CanadaIn 2019, Canada celebrated the 90th anniversary
of bilateral diplomatic relations with Japan,
while Honda Canada celebrated its 50th
anniversary since establishment in 1969. And
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada reaffirmed
its commitment to Canada, announcing plans
to assemble the Lexus NX, a compact luxury
crossover including a hybrid version, at their
plant in Southwestern Ontario in 2022. This
continued investment in Canada will give
manufacturers the opportunity to assemble SUVs
that have previously only been built in Japan
and will secure more long-term growth in the
Canadian auto sector.
