SMF - Just Installed!
Quote from: Shen Li on June 24, 2025, 09:44:31 PMMark Carnage just like his predecessor wants to take away your choices what you can drive, what you can see on the internet, your news choices, how you choose to heat your home and what type of rifle you can use to hunt.Only our choices. He will still get to decide which jet to take his clothes and which one to take for himself when he goes to pedo island.
Quote from: JOE on June 24, 2025, 11:38:19 AMHere Lokmar:Honeybunch, you will have to buy an EV thanks to Mr Carney. But, you will be too old to drive by the time it's fully implemented.
Sales hybrids up, but EV's decline.
I wouldn't buy an EV Lokmar
Hybrid maybe but not an EV
Quote from: Thiel on June 23, 2025, 11:01:31 PMMr Carney's EV mandate is impossible. So is net zero. He knows that, but he will make you poor trying to achieve both.I will tell the people it will save the planet. They will buy it.

Quote from: JOE on June 24, 2025, 11:18:56 AMYeah I bet the Canadian government will be forced to compromise & hybrid vehicles will become more popular if not the norm by 2035 Shen LiShen.
Actually I read somewhere that while EV sales are declining, hybrid sales are going up.
So the kind of people who are buying them are seeking something in the middle.

Where are they going to get the juice for twenty million electric vehicles.it was so bad two winters ago when we had two weeks of below -35 that there were rolling blackouts.
Quote from: Shen Li on June 23, 2025, 09:04:28 PMSome facts to ponder Canadians while Mark Carnage takes away your choice to drive the car you want.
Canada has 30,000 public charging stations. That country would need to double the amount they have right now and build 60,000 per year for the next decade to meet the bare minimum needed for an all electric fleet of cars.
Canada would need 14 new Canadu reactors costing about $15 billion each to meet it's electricity needs for just private cars. That does not include commercial vehicles.
Canada would need at least 12 new Site C sized dams costing $16 billion each to meet the demand just from personal elect4ric vehicles.

Quote from: Herman on June 22, 2025, 03:56:03 PMConman Carney is exactly like his predecessor. Right down to the idiotic EV mandate and throwing billions away to create artificial demand.I guarantee Mr Carney's ev mandate and net zero decree will not impact his carbon intensive globetrotting lifestyle.
This will destroy Ontario's economy.
Carney Liberals stubbornly holding onto EV lost cause
https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/lorne-gunter-carney-liberals-stubbornly-holding-onto-ev-lost-cause/wcm/0aaae55c-1f53-4aaa-85ad-ca03daa42334
This week, the Carney Liberals announced they had no intention of changing the Trudeau government's planned ban on gasoline-powered cars, trucks and vans beginning next year. Whether you want an EV, you'll be forced to buy one if you buy any new vehicle by 2035.
This is the ideological equivalent of telling people who want a house they must buy a condo, instead.
he federal government is stubbornly holding on to its EV mandate in the face of declining market demand for electrics.
Until the Carney Liberals choose not to build a new pipeline to the East Coast (which I expect them to announce in the next couple of years), this rigidity on EVs is the best proof yet that the Carney government differs very little from Justin Trudeau's.
On Friday, Mercedes-Benz announced it was making a "course correction." It was no longer committed to going fully electric by 2030. "Market conditions" (translation: lousy EV sales) were forcing it to "retain internal combustion engines longer than initially planned." Mercedes will even continue to develop gas-powered and diesel engines.
Only days before, Audi had made a similar climbdown.
Honda, of course, announced last month it was suspending construction of $15 billion worth of EV plants in Ontario for at least two years. General Motors has shuttered its BrightDrop electric van plant in Ingersoll, Ont. And when it brings it back online this fall, GM plans to run the assembly line at half capacity or less.
Since the beginning of the year, Stellantis (Chrysler and Fiat) has shied away from producing large numbers of EVs, as have Volvo, Porsche, Ferrari and the subsidiaries of Volkswagen.
My favourite "course correction" comes from Ford which, after losing $5 billion on EVs last year, announced it would be converting a planned EV plant in Ontario to making its 10,000-pound (4,500-kilogram) F-250 SuperDuty pickup.
