The radical Liberals are planning to make your gas-powered vehicles illegal.

They will force you to buy an expensive electric vehicle.

This isn't some far right conspiracy theory, this is the real Liberal 10-year plan. By 2035, all new gas powered vehicle sales will be banned.

The Liberals are living in a fantasy land.

People need their vehicles for work. The Liberals are finding another way to punish Canadians for simply living their lives.

Let me be clear: This Liberal ban on gas powered cars will drive up the costs of vehicles by $20,000, hurt rural communities, and kill Canadian auto jobs. It's economic sabotage.

Liberals in Ottawa and in busy downtown cores think they know better than you. They don't understand that in many rural parts of Canada, there are no EV chargers for hundreds of kilometres, and on top of that, EVs can lose forty percent of their battery life in cold weather.

Mark Carney might not know this because he hasn't spent a lot of time in parts of this country, but Canada is cold!

This is not politics as usual. This is extreme ideology.

The Liberals will be forced into a compromise DKG

More likely a hybrid solution coming which will encourage more people to go electric but not completely.

But gas powered vehicles will still be around in 2035. But gas only vehicles will become rarer over time.

The dictatorial Liberals put people in jail for months/years for peacefully protesting against their authoritarian rule. They seized bank accounts and tried to use tank on them. What do you think they would do if there were an armed civil war attempt. They would go Tianamen on everybody.

Mark Carney was an excellent choice for Prime Minister.

You all should be glad we got em.

I certainly am DKG DKG!

Canada has gone full fascist in the past decade and it's getting worse. I'm soooooooo fucking glad I got my sons out of that third world wannable dictatorial hellhole.

This is aspirational and that's it. It's not happening in Commifornia and it's not happening in Canada.

I'll be turning 51 in late 2035. If I come here for a holiday on my birthday in 2035 there will still be new ICE vehicles sold on car lots.

True.

Here's some perspective:
'They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.'

I think ultimately, you're right. The biggest problem is average joe doesnt grasp the concept of what it takes to generate electrical power and how much electrical power it takes to fast charge an electric car which STILL takes 1/2 hour to go from 20% to 80%. The plug on an electric stove is 50a/240v or 12,000 watts. (12KW) A dual port 480v 3ph fast charger for electric cars is 62KW.
#1. A house only has 240 single phase, NOT 480 3 phase
#2. There's no fucking way ANY country is going to outfit all homes with 480 3 phase. You'd pretty much have to completely rebuild the electrical grid.


Almost forgot, the average home has a single phase 200a service which is ACTUALLY rated at 80% continuous which is 160 amps, NOT 200!. The most single phase power you can squeeze from a home is 38,000 watts or 38KW = 240v X 160amps. One fast charger takes nearly 100% of that power!!!! You could turn on every fucking electrical item you own and STILL likely not reach 38KW!!!!!

I know it's a pipe dream. As much as the governments of Commiefornia and Canada have their heads up their asses, they know it too.

There is still about ten days left in Pride month Sweetie.

Welcome your new dictator. His bills will make his word law without any debate or transparency. Dangerous as hell for you, good for Brookfield. Get why this WEF control freak wanted to be your pm.

More elbows down and arses up for China and Brookfield.

And if you really want to understand how deep this betrayal goes, just watch Question Period That's where Conservative MP Tamara Kronis torched the government's hypocrisy: "The Prime Minister says he wants to build, baby, build," she said, "but he can't even get the B.C. NDP to build Canadian ships for Canadian taxpayers in Canada." She's right. While the Liberals shout about investing in Canadian jobs, they're letting B.C. Ferries ship those jobs to Communist China.

Then came Dan Albas, cutting through the spin with one brutal question: "Will the minister grow a spine of Canadian-manufactured steel and make Canadian jobs a requirement for this funding?" That's the question every taxpayer should be asking. Why are we sending federal money to a foreign regime while Canadian shipbuilders stand idle?

First: The ferries connecting B.C. to Vancouver Island are not just some quirky local project. They are legally part of Canada's highway system. That's right. The ferry route is Highway 1. And Highway 1 is integrated into the National Highway System—which means it's a federal infrastructure corridor.

Second: When the federal government writes a check—$36 million in this case—to B.C. Ferries for operational support, it is no longer "provincial." That money comes with federal accountability. They could've demanded Canadian content. They could've said, "If you want federal money, you build with Canadian steel, in a Canadian yard, with Canadian workers." But they didn't.

Instead, they watched as the contract went straight to a Chinese state-owned shipyard—the same regime that slaps tariffs on Canadian pork and beef, spies on MPs.
