Canada bans ICE car sales by 2035

Time to build a wind powered propeller car that goes faster than the wind behind it.

143% last I checked.

You guys are forgetting all the wind farms. There's so much hot air blowing in from Vancouver, we can generate infinite energy. I'm amazed Ontario hasn't harnessed all of it coming from Ottawa too.

If we could just find a way to harness all of the power from turdopes bindy dancing we could power a fleet of nuclear submarines

Good thing we have the infrastructure in place for existing EV already

I've got a suggestion for Elon. Put solar panels along that waiting line to get to the charge stations in case of overflow. Then the cars wont be roasting while waiting, and they might be able to trickle charge an extra slot on these crazy sunny hot days.

Net zero emissions vehicles? Do these people know where our electricity comes from?

I think this will drop the price of gasoline and ICE vehicles will become highly coveted causing higher car prices.
The current EnMax infrastructure barely can hold up everyone installing AC. Can't imagine everyone charging cars @ 6pm.

Gasoline prices going down? Don't worry, there's a TAX for that!

Better idea: Build the solar charging into the car like Hyundai Sonata

True. Tax the gas to hand subsidies to the EV's.
Then when most have EV's, tax increases on the electrical bills.

I wonder what the hail coverage cost will be like on that car?

[mr2mike]

I wish people were told honestly why Vancouver gas prices are higher than in Hope BC. Its not price spikes. It's the added taxes that Metro Vancouver has on gasoline vs rest of BC.

Everyone knows is so the Alberta oil companies can make an extra buck or two

It will be interesting to see where governments will get their money to maintain roads and highways when ICE users are not enough to keep up with routine maintenance. There should be a tax per charging hour to offset the wear and tear EV's have on the existing infrastructure.

Shhhh driving an EV is a holy Endeavor.

Government would NEVER see an opportunity to tax it

There should be a tax on Teslas for making me have to look at their horrible "design".

It'll probably come through EnMax fees in Alberta and we will all have the satisfaction of "doing good for climate change".

I’ve never liked the sound of a tax better.

Can we also tax the new M4?

Until they do. This is the Golden Age of EV's. Monthly fees from the manufacturers will come. Unable to charge for free at work will come. Taxes will come. Peak time usage pricing explosions will come.
It's all downhill from here, except putting the brakes on isn't going to regenerate shit.

Work from home is so 2020.

I want to be able to work from my Tesla, so I can work at work, work at home, and work while I commute.

This is the way.
