“EV mandates run counter to ‘Buy Canada’ policies,” says Penner
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Energy Futures Institute today welcomed the federal government’s announcement that it will suspend its electric vehicle (EV) sales mandate for a 60-day review. The Institute strongly urges the Government of British Columbia to enact a similar pause on its even more aggressive EV mandate.
“This federal announcement is a step in the right direction, as it belatedly recognizes economic reality,” said Barry Penner, KC, Chair of the Energy Futures Institute.
