Environmentally? Economically? Practically?
There are many concerns about making the leap to an EV from a gas car.

Join us for a deep dive into these issues with the added benefit of having 8 Guelph EV owners share their experiences on how they got through the steep learning curve.

In case anyone is wondering why emissions are still so high

In honour of , we would like to remind everyone that in 2005, a MOU was signed by the federal government and the Canadian automotive industry. This MOU stated that "automobile manufacturers voluntarily agree to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from new vehicles in Canada so that by 2010, annual emissions reductions will reach 5.3 megatonnes" - https://lnkd.in/gKcvAWhy

Unsurprisingly, the target was missed by a whopping 95 per cent.

Without regulation like the EV Availability Standard, Canada will remain at a standstill. Or worse - we'll regress.

Support the EV Availability Standard. Support Canada.
