First and foremost, I would love to see one regulation. I know we talk a lot, particularly in light of the economic challenges we're facing, about building a stronger Canada and getting rid of interprovincial trade barriers. It would be extremely helpful to the auto industry if automakers weren't having to comply with, right now, four regulations: a Quebec EV mandate, a B.C. EV mandate, a federal EV mandate and GHG emissions standards.
The best thing that could be done is if everyone were to agree on one single regulatory tool, ideally the technology-agnostic GHG regulations. That would strengthen the sector and help government meet its own environmental targets.
