How Realistic Is Ontario's Push Toward Electric Vehicles?

How realistic is Ontario's push toward electric vehicles, and is the province prepared for what comes next? As places like Norway show what large scale EV adoption can look like, we examine how easy it actually is to buy and drive an electric vehicle in Ontario, whether governments are doing enough to support the transition, and how the market could shift as more Chinese made vehicles arrive. Plug'n Drive president and CEO Cara Clairman and clean mobility expert Lindsay Wiginton of Dunsky Energy and Climate Advisors weigh in. We then turn to a growing political flashpoint, Premier Doug Ford's claim that Chinese EVs are "spy vehicles." What are the real cybersecurity risks drivers should and should not be worried about? David Shipley, CEO and co founder of Beauceron Security, helps separate legitimate threats from fear driven rhetoric.
