Yes but other than government handouts to industry, the EV industry in Canada has no momentum. Moreover, between Assolini's eagerness to destroy the world, Smith's anti-EV lobbying, and Carney's corporate profits-first agenda, I don't see EV manufacturing getting off the ground in Canada any time soon. I bet Carney will soon strike down (or 'postpone') the EV quota mandate for Canadian car manufacturers, to go into effect in 2026, I think, further eroding momentum. Other parts of the world are passing North America by when it comes to renewables while we're asleep at the wheel because the oligarchs in this country obstinately refuse to reduce fossil fuel dependence and our political and media classes keep bowing to them
