Mr. Chair, that is an interesting question. The bottom line is that we cannot impose government-run mandates on people that say they have to buy something. Ours is not a Soviet-style democracy; it is a Canadian democracy where people have the choice to make up their own mind as to what vehicle they are going to buy.
Furthermore, is the infrastructure there, for crying out loud? It is not. I would love for the infrastructure to be there so we can have EVs, but it does not exist right now.
Do Conservatives support these measures? Of course we do. As Conservatives, we too are worried about our planet's future, but there is a way to address that, and it has to be a common-sense way that is fiscally responsible and accountable, as well as transparent.
