Should the government require all new cars to be electric or hybrid by a certain date?

Yes, but only if it includes subsidies for low-income citizens to afford these vehicles

Only after adequate infrastructure is fully in place, which required government planning and investment

I think they should encourage it, but not enforce it.

If this refers to new models, then yes. However, people have the right to own older models, as many are fans of classic car shows.

Yes, if EVs are affordable and there is the infrastructure to support it in place.

Yes, but increase the available infrastructures to accommodate for hybrid/electric vehicles.

No, however making tech companies produce more affordable/maintainable electric vehicles (cars, trucks, bikes, etc) by a certain time so people would have more opportunities to purchase an electric vehicle.

Yea, and cars in general should be limited if public transport is sufficient

Have hybrids more available in the more rural areas. Larger populated have more charging stations

Yes, but only if they ensure there are affordable options.

Yes, if still affordable, and functional. Hybrid recovery systems for sure used.

Yes, provided there's sufficient vehicle charging infrastructure that's similar in price or cheaper than gas/diesel

While it’s a nice idea, Canada doesn’t have the infrastructure in place nor do we have the ability to supply the demand that will result from everyone driving electric.

Find a source that works. Lithium and electric is no better.

Make electric and hybrid options actually affordable to the now cash-strapped working class poor.

No, the government should allow the market to determine the evolution of carbon efficient vehicles

Hybrid but maybe not electric until the technology develops further.

implement better public transportation and make cities less car dependent

This should be a gradual requirement over many years as costs of electric and hybrid cars need to be anticipated by purchases - especially those who make minimum wages but who require transportation.

Yes, and require all emission based machinery to transition to clean energy

No, the government has no right to interfere in consumer choices or the free market

No, we should mandate recycling in the automobile industry and with all new vehicles do what we can to decrease fuel consumption and invest in a new technology instead of lithium batteries to replace the combustion engine.

No, electric vehicle parts can be just as dangerous to the environment as emissions

No, not until we find an eco-friendly and humane way to acquire the materials

How do you feel about the government making rules that could push everyone toward specific types of cars, like electric vehicles?

If electric vehicles became the norm, how do you think that would impact everyday life for you and your community?

What're your thoughts on balancing long-term environmental benefits with the higher upfront cost of buying electric vehicles today?

Do you think moving away from gasoline cars will actually make a big difference in tackling global environmental issues, or not so much?

How much do you think you’re personally responsible for making eco-friendly vehicle choices—do you have a role in this change?

What concerns would influence your decision to buy an electric vehicle, such as price, convenience, or just personal preference?

How would you feel if older cars were banned in the future to promote newer, cleaner technology?

Do you think electric vehicles should be more affordable and accessible across different income levels, or should they first target luxury buyers?

What do you think are the hidden challenges in switching millions of people from gas-powered cars to electric models?

If you had to decide between saving money on fuel in the long run or paying less upfront for a traditional car, what would you prioritize and why?

Yes but at a later date making gas car not get mad

No, incentivize consumers and manufacturers instead of forcing them
