Thank you, Madam Chair.
Mr. Breton, I can remember back in 2003 when I showed the film Who Killed the Electric Car? It was based on the EV that General Motors had done. Now we've come full circle to embracing it quite differently.
One of the interesting side effects we have now is something that you noted, which I don't think gets a lot of recognition. I also worked on a bill called, in short, the right to repair, dealing with the automotive aftermarket. It was about getting the information, technology, equipment and servicing for people, other than dealerships, who are fixing vehicles. In the United States that was provided because of the Environmental Protection Agency and other work.
Tesla now refuses to sign the voluntary agreement. To make a long story short, my bill passed second reading in the House of Commons but eventually became a voluntary agreement. Tesla hasn't signed on to that. I'm just curious about what we should do about that and whether perhaps we need to maybe look at a non-voluntary agreement at some point. If we're going to have more electric vehicle suppliers come into Canada, they should all be living up to the same rules.
