New Mandate Takes Effect by 2023
In a groundbreaking move set to be officially revealed this week, the Canadian government is poised to mandate that every new vehicle hitting the roads must be a zero-emissions vehicle (ZEV) by the year 2035. The upcoming announcement will introduce a transformative set of vehicle regulations, according to exclusive information obtained by The Toronto Star.
This direction aligns with Quebec’s ZEV support, mirroring the province’s ambitious transportation electrification goals. It aims for two million electric vehicles on Quebec roads by 2030 and sets the stage for banning gasoline-powered light-duty vehicle sales in 2035.
Pioneering the Zero-Emissions Vehicle Mandate: British Columbia’s Ambitious EV Goals
Canada’s other leading ZEV supporter, British Columbia, the target is to achieve 26% electric vehicle sales by 2026, 90% by 2030, and a complete transition to 100% electric vehicles by 2035. This bold step by the Canadian government underscores the urgency of addressing climate change through widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs).
