The shocking gap in Ottawa’s EV plan — lack of due diligence

The power grid that took more than a century to build will have to double its capacity in just 30 years. That will cost. Who’s paying?

What would happen to your electricity bill if all your neighbours started driving electric vehicles (EVs)? This is not a hypothetical question. The federal government’s plan is for Canadians to be driving EVs en masse in a little more than a decade. Ottawa has banned the sale of new gas-powered passenger vehicles as of 2035 and the government has committed tens of billions of taxpayer dollars in grants and incentives to the makers of EV batteries.

We are a nation governed by high school students. Stupid high school students.
