🚨 By 2035, you’ll be banned from buying a gas or hybrid car in Canada — even if it’s made here. No debate. No vote. Guilbeault rewrote CEPA. Carney won’t reverse it. In -40°C winters & rural blackouts, EVs can’t cut it. Let Canadians choose. #cdnpoli https://t.co/vxeyZNq3E2
Video Transcript AI Summary
According to the speaker, Canada has an electric vehicle mandate, implemented without parliamentary debate, requiring all vehicles sold in Canada to be electric by 2035. This was enacted by the environmental minister through changes to the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA).
The speaker believes this mandate is an example of government overreach, citing challenges posed by Canada's cold climate, the needs of rural Canadians, and power outages that would render electric vehicles unusable.
The speaker contrasts this approach with the conservative viewpoint, which emphasizes individual choice and ensuring the infrastructure is in place to support those who choose electric vehicles. The speaker states conservatives prioritize equal opportunity in areas like education, employment, healthcare, and family raising.

Speaker 0: Not many Canadians know there's an electric vehicle mandate in place right now. It was without a debate in parliament that says by 02/1935, you can no longer buy in Canada a hybrid or gas car. You have to buy an electric automobile. It was quietly put in place by the environmental minister, Guibaud, in the last parliament, and he just changed CEPA, the Environmental Protection Act. And all they did was said that all vehicles made in Canada have to have zero emissions.
It's an example where government thinks they know best. And, you know, the examples we give of why this doesn't work, not only with the cold climate we have here and rural Canadians who, you know, need their vehicles, but Peterborough just had a powder outage, three weeks ago. Was one of the only Sundays we didn't door knock and power was up for five days. At that point, you don't have a car if you have an electric vehicle and you can't power it. It's another it's an example where government thinks they know best.
Or our our alternative is if you as a family believe that you want electric vehicle, then buy one. Make sure you get the adapter in your home. As a government our job is to make sure the infrastructure is there, the power grid, know if we need whatever that power supply is, but it's not to tell you to buy that vehicle and that's the difference in a nutshell between conservatives and liberal governments. We really believe in the power of people that you can go if you as long as you have the opportunity. We want to make sure people have equal opportunity for education, equal opportunity to get a good job.
There's lots of good jobs available, equal opportunity to health care, equal opportunity to be able to raise a family. Those are the things that are important to us. And that's why I'm a conservative. What is the concern?
