FYI the province also contributed, funnily enough under the Ford government (Doug Ford). As for a response, the government works really slow - their lawyers will get around this soon enough. The government does not even have to make any announcements, they just can not give Ford the subsidy money due to P3 contract violations. They do that and Trudeau will get seriously roasted and smoked out of the PM job come next election...pulling the plug on this transition to fossil fuels won't even begin to happen.

The people of Canada are not that loyal to Ford motors. A small area of Ontario may care but the liberals tend to win there anyways. Regardless, the plant will go ahead, just Ford may have to pay more of their own way. Heck, many people would be happy if the government pulled subsidy money (taxes) to big auto.

You would be surprised how many EV's are on the roads up here. They work. Do you know is gets so cold in Canada ICE cars fail to start unless you plug in a block heater? The heater does not charge your battery, it only wastes energy. Do you know that almost everyone who drives an ICE car around here carries booster cables because the bloody lead acid batteries suck in cold temperatures? Do you know that ICE cars lose a lot of efficiency in the cold? All the moving parts and fluids stiffen up. People let their cars idle wasting loads of energy so they can warm up before moving. People with hard to start diesel trucks just let them run overnight sometimes. Running but going nowhere... super efficient. Tell me more about how you know more about Canadian winters than I do.
