It has on most other auto standardsTrue, but it's California, Colorado, Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Virginia, Vermont, Washington and Washington DC.
Total population of 115m. Is that enough to push the US auto industry to flip to EV and reduce or eliminate ICE? I don't know, time will tell, but 115m is quite a lot of Americans.

Carney just said something along the lines of 'we are looking at alternatives to existing EV options available in Canada today, with the hopes of more affordable options being available'.While the EV target may be getting scrapped, bringing in more affordable EV's might also be part of the play. Could BYD and others be coming to Canada soon, and if so will they be built here too?

Great idea, we should look for more ways to give money to our next real adversary.Carney just said something along the lines of 'we are looking at alternatives to existing EV options available in Canada today, with the hopes of more affordable options being available'.
That sounds alot like looking at Chinese EV options being available in Canada. Warren Buffet will be happy![]()
Remember when Lada's and Yugo's were sold here in Canada over 40yrs ago?Great idea, we should look for more ways to give money to our next real adversary.
I would love to be premier of Alberta.While true, you what else is never good for Alberta? A federal LPC government.
Alphabetically; British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland & Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.I would love to be premier of Alberta.
Anything goes right? Alberta did that. Anything goes wrong? The Feds.
I don't know any other province that gets that cop out
I seem to remember when Quebec ran massive deficits, had a massive debt load and high unemployment they were called a socialist fiscal basket case.Alphabetically; British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland & Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.
It's how Confederation works, and you know it as well as every other Canadian. It's just that Alberta, like Quebec are the squeaky wheels that get the most attention.
Hoping that this translates into a lot of CDN steel going into the River’s, 2nd JSS, the Polar CCG ships and the future CDC’s.Lots of details in what is a compressive plan.
EV pause and review.
EI changes for re-skilling
Buy Canada policy with changes to procurement
New business loan expansions
Relief for farmers
Lots to dig into
Like the LSVW on a country wide scale.EV mandates, which are political, will be competing with AI demands, which are market-based, for whatever supply of electrical power is available, which takes long lead times to increase.
I predict an increase in the number of third-party auto parts manufacturers and reconditioners as people seek to keep older ICE vehicles roadworthy.
The unkillable Mr John Clark enters the chat.....Not sure what age I first read Without Remorse, but I’m not sure I was a teenager yet, and that was about banging hookers and murdering pimps, so…
