Thank you.

Thank you for your answers.

I'd like to go to Ms. Irwin from ISED.

Recently, there was the announcement about the Ford Motor Company producing EVs and batteries in Canada at Windsor and Oakville. Fiat Chrysler has an announcement on hybrid vehicles or EVs in Canada. One of the presentations showed the difficulty that dealerships in Canada have in obtaining EVs.

Could you comment on when these programs will roll out and whether that can help us get more EVs through the dealerships?
