📢 Pierre Poilievre says: “Automakers have warned Mr. Carney of the job losses and rising costs from his ban on gas-powered vehicles. We must allow people the freedom to choose.”
Here’s the problem: there is no ban on gas-powered vehicles.
✔ The policy sets targets for more zero-emission vehicles starting in 2027, aiming for 82% of new sales by 2032.
✔ You can still buy, sell, and drive gas cars after that.
✔ This shift is already happening because automakers are building for global markets, not because anyone’s taking your keys.
So why isn’t mainstream media fact-checking this? Why are politicians allowed to call something a “ban” when it isn’t?
