Very quickly, we need to align with the safety regulations of the EU to bring more models in. That's number one.
Examine the tariffs on the Chinese EVs up front to increase the number of EVs coming in early. That would absolutely impact the health benefits as well. Think of this as compound interest. You can't make this up on the back end by investing more. You have to invest early and continue that investment.
Additionally, at the municipal level, there's a lot of red tape that impacts being able to deploy charging. You could do another study on that. Provincial strategies, like B.C.'s and Quebec's, are notable in how effective they've been, largely because of the intensive charging strategies they've deployed. While Ontario has invested money recently in ChargeON—it's a great program and we love to see it—there needs to be a more comprehensive strategy to help address range anxiety as part of the education.
