    EVs are an inefficient solution for the ~85% of Canadians who live in urban areas. We need more investment in efficient solutions in areas like public transportation, active transportation, and liveable cities.

      This will help with the externalities of cars too like massive parking lots, noise pollution, and urban sprawl which waste more resources and land

        I agree with all of you, though the fight for expanded public transit will be even harder than that of electric cars (just look at Toronto’s light rail/subway woes)
