That feels like "robbing Peter to pay Paul". We don't want to be dependent on either nationalist autocracy.

    Mercedes make pretty good EVs but dunno if they're in Canada. They're definitely cheaper in Europe though.

    So does Chevy and Ford and probably most of the others. Toyota has fallen behind IIRC, but most manufacturers have an offering. Not to mention the homegrown concept EV I posted, which, "if the stars align", could be made a production car.
