Juno News - Dan McTeague breaks down exactly why the EV mandate is unaffordable

00:00:00.000 If we have an integrated like auto manufacturing system, which we do, right?

00:00:05.180 I've read that a car part can cross the Canada-US border for one make or model a vehicle like 10 times.

00:00:12.260 So it's all integrated.

00:00:14.160 How could we force people to purchase only EVs or start increasing the quotas?

00:00:22.260 It starts at 20% in four months time.

00:00:25.240 How can Canada do that if the United States isn't?

00:00:30.000 Well, again, it's, you know, just hoping that we can maybe trade with the Americans or rather with the Europeans and forget the Americans.

00:00:39.280 You know, there are trade relationship with the United States is 15 times greater than that, which we trade with in Europe.

00:00:45.100 So if we think we can turn that out overnight, it's taken 100 years to develop.

00:00:48.160 Good luck. But this is truly political virtue signaling.

00:00:52.440 And the elbows up crowd that thought it was cool and trendy to be able to tell the Americans to go take a hike.

00:00:56.940 you may not like trump but you sure as hell can't agree disagree with why he did it he knows it was

00:01:01.700 going to hurt americans he's standing up for their economy he's not prepared to allow uh uh you know

00:01:06.460 someone to impose an arbitrary deadline you know that says you have to have 100 vehicles by such

00:01:11.500 and such time and spend two to three trillion dollars to obtain that canada doesn't have that

00:01:16.640 kind of ability and that we do rely on the american market as i mentioned 90 of what you

00:01:21.560 produce in ontario so that'd be the toyota factories the stilantis factories the ford

00:01:25.860 factory uh the gm factories all of those have to sell to the united states if the american if the

00:01:31.620 americans are not buying evs and not being told that they have to buy evs now that there's a new

00:01:36.240 uh president and a new administration new epa in town it means that there's no market for this

00:01:41.320 kind of stuff so forcing this on canadians i don't know why they want us to drive all these

00:01:45.440 you know over glorified electric golf carts because frankly they're not practical especially

00:01:49.780 in canada which is a hell of a cold in the united states and for which uh we don't have the as you

00:01:54.000 pointed out very correctly we don't have the electrical infrastructure nor the

00:01:57.720 money to back it up.
