Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre announced a nationwide campaign aimed at opposing the federal government's electric vehicle (EV) mandate under Prime Minister Mark Carney. The campaign will involve motions in Parliament, targeted pressure efforts, events at car dealerships, and petitions. Poilievre criticized Carney's administration, comparing it unfavorably to the previous Trudeau government, stating that Canada is deteriorating with no new projects initiated and a looming ban on gas-powered vehicles. He described the EV mandate as comparable to "banning rural life" and accused the Liberals of maintaining the mandate for political benefit, similar to their approach with the consumer carbon tax. The Conservative campaign seeks to pressure the Liberals to end the EV mandate.
