OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Thursday he was scrapping the controversial electric vehicle mandate implemented by his Liberal predecessor, replacing it with more stringent tailpipe regulations and introducing a new purchase incentive for electric vehicles priced under $50,000. Most auto manufacturers and industry representatives as well Ontario Premier Doug Ford have called for the elimination of the Justin Trudeau-era policy, arguing it was an unrealistic timeline. It comes after Carney announced back in September that he would pause the policy, which was set to take effect for the 2026 model year, with his government consulting with industry. On top of that, Carney announced his government would partially resume popular EV purchase incentives that expired after the original federal program ran out of money in 2024. Carney said on Thursday the goal was for roughly half of those 49,000 Chinese-made electric vehicles to be priced at $35,000 or less.
