Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to follow up on the question to Ms. Kyriazis about second-hand vehicle purchases. Fifty percent of Canadians live paycheque to paycheque. The cost of rent, child care and other essentials are rising, for many people, purchasing a new vehicle, whether it's gas or electric, really isn't an option. Even with more government incentives for new purchases, the high cost of these vehicles will still make them out of reach for them.
In addition to what I see as a very concrete step, which would be to put incentives on second-hand vehicles, what other things can we be doing to ensure that electric vehicles aren't just for those who can afford a purchase of tens of thousands of dollars?
