Canada delaying plan to force automakers to hit EVs sales targets

Prime Minister Mark Carney is delaying a plan to force automakers to hit minimum sales levels for electric vehicles.

The move is part of a series of measures the government announced Friday to help the sectors most affected by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs.

The EV mandate will be paused as the government conducts a 60-day review of the policy, and will be waived for 2026 models.

Sources told CBC News that the review will look at the entire mandate and next steps.

"We have an auto sector which, because of the massive change in U.S. policy, is under extreme pressure. We recognize that," Carney said at a news conference in Mississauga, Ont. "They've got enough on their plate right now. So we're taking that off."

The government is using the review as part of broader look at all the government's climate measures, he added.

You may find 'nobility' in a savage. But never forget that his first instinct is to kill you.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists
