Doug Ford won’t give rebates to ‘millionaires’ to buy EVs, even though sales lag in Ontario
Premier Doug Ford is dismissing the idea of bringing back a rebate to encourage Ontarians to buy more electric vehicles, even though the province is lagging behind much of the country in sales.
“I’m not going to give rebates to guys that are buying $100,000 cars — millionaires,” he said Wednesday, even though his own government says it’s counting on rising sales of those electric vehicles (EVs) to help bring down greenhouse gas emissions.
In 2018, Ford’s government cancelled the Electric and Hydrogen Vehicle Incentive Program, brought in by the Liberals under Kathleen Wynne.
Good for Doug.
