Actual good plan:
- Announce that the 401 will be permanently closed on Dec 31, 2024.
- Do NOT add more lanes to the 403 or the 407.
- Start construction of both a high speed, limited stop, rail line and a moderate speed, frequent stop rail line, where the 401 used to be on Jan 2, 2025.

I'd vote for it!
-
Speaking my love language.

Although this is likely to never happen in the States, the fact that a large number of other countries like Canada and most of Europe are making these changes means it'll become impractical to keep a separate line of ICE engines going as demand for electric vehicles grows worldwide.
-
This is happening in some of the States. California, Oregon and New York have bans for 2035 and Washington state even for 2030. The New England states seem to want to ban it too by 2035. Hawaii looks at a 2030 ban.
That would be a third of the US population.

A large amount of car manufacturers are already going electric. They see the change coming.
Most of our big ones by 2035.

Cars are a dead-end technology that leave too many people dead by collisions and even more from unsustainable infrastructure.
-
Based.

Zero-emission vehicles - which include battery electric, plug-in and hydrogen models - must represent 20 per cent of all new car sales in 2026, 60 per cent in 2030 and 100 per cent in 2035, the source said on condition of anonymity.
So "plug-in" would be PHEVs I'm assuming?
-
It's crazy to think how far BEV range will be by then too.
Unfortunately, I'm sure far right wing nutjobs will still convince themselves somehow that masculinity is dependent on owning a diesel/petrol engine
-
There's also a good chance far right wing nutjobs will run Canada after the next election and make pollution mandatory to pwn the libs.
-
Gunna go hard badgering everyone I know to vote this time around.

Really based move from Canada.
-
It's not. It's just acknowledging the reality that with a lot of countries (including the EU) and several states of their southern neighbour putting bans on combustion-engines in place for 2030-2036 that industry will simply be dead.
Not banning them by 2035 would have the exact same result as you simply don't buy anything but an EV when that's the only option left by then.

This is already ded. Anything a decade out will never make it
-
It's not a decade out though; it starts phasing in in 2026:
Zero-emission vehicles - which include battery electric, plug-in and hydrogen models - must represent 20 per cent of all new car sales in 2026, 60 per cent in 2030 and 100 per cent in 2035, the source said on condition of anonymity.

The cold weather there is terrible for Lithium batteries. This plan will never hold with current EV tech
-
The cold weather there was terrible for gas engines too. It's definitely viable with what we have.
