Required Reading: Canada's Entire Push for EVs and eco regulations a scam

By Lorne Gunter, Edmonton Sun:

Regular readers will know I have no objection, per se, to electric vehicles.

I don’t care if my next car or truck is powered by jam sandwiches, just so long as it can go as far between charges as my current internal combustion-powered truck (800 kilometres), be recharged in the same amount of time it takes me to refuel (five to seven minutes) and work just as well as in Alberta winters. For the same price.

What bugs me most about EVs is the sanctimony around them — that somehow they’re a more moral choice — and the compulsory way the Trudeau government is forcing them on us.

I drive too much outside the city, and too far, for an EV to be practical. But my wife mostly uses her car for commuting, so we thought we should upgrade the electrical panels in our home from 100 amps to 200 to accommodate a rapid charger, in case she buys an EV in the future.
