Norme Zéro Émission: Contrairement à ce qu'affirme Éric Duhaime, le Québec est loin de faire cavalier seul dans son objectif de 100% de ventes de VÉ en 2035. Voici d'autres juridictions qui ont adopté le même objectif:

- BC
- Le Canada
- 16 états américains
- L'Union européenne

''A-t-on réellement besoin d’une telle norme?’’

- 22% des émissions au pays proviennent des véhicules légers
- L'offre de VE reste limitée - encore + en dehors de la CB & du QC
- Tous les Canadiens devraient avoir accès à la prévisibilité des coûts & aux économies des VE

Despite what you’ll hear, ZEV sales in Canada are UP, not down.

In Q3 2023, new ZEVs made up 12.1% of all new vehicles registered – a significant increase from Q3 2022, at 8.7%.

The NDP ran on a platform that included commitments for rebates for new/used EV, more charging stations, and electric transit buses

[Joe Homsy @JoeHomsy]

By 2030, 67% of new car and van sales should be PHEVs/BEVs/FCEVs to keep the 1.5°C goal in reach
