Trudeau says electric delivery vans have started rolling off the line today at the General Motors CAMI production plant in Ingersoll, Ont., which has been retooled to build the company's BrightDrop all-electric vehicle brand.
The prime minister was joined by Ford and the province's Economic Development Minister Vic Fedeli to mark the milestone. The provincial and federal governments each invested $259 million toward GM's $2-billion plan to transform its Ingersoll plant and overhaul its Oshawa, Ont., plant to make it EV-ready.
The federal government says the Ingersoll plant is expected to manufacture 50,000 electric vehicles by 2025.This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 5, 2022.
Hurry get you ev just remember to get more than 50kms from a full charge during winter months do not use the heat in your vehicle keep it warm when it's cold and keep it in a heated garage
No wonder Doug Ford is so hated....look who he's in bed with
What a sorry state of affairs and pathetic excuse mainstream journalism has become. They literally let Ford get away with the most insane things like backroom deals and developer donor corruption. Yet when Wynne wasn't even involved in the gas plant scandal it was a story for yrs
So why oh why don’t you reinstate the provincial electric car rebate you removed ?
I hope Trudeau thoroughly washes his hand afterwards.
Guess they're buddies again.
Wow! How about the national health care crisis we have now days? Our pediatric hospitals and everything that matters? Are you both meeting any time soon?
Ford looks like trudopes puppet
Tried to buy an electric vehicle about 3 years ago, dealership jacked up the price of the car equivalent to the Federal rebate of $12,000.00. and then suggested they’d look after collecting the rebate. Not sure we need dealerships at all. Order cars straight on line!

Trudeau should trust himself to go off-script more oftenIn political time it feels like eons ago, but it was just over a week ago that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared before the Public Order Emergency Commission to deliver hours of testimony about why he invoked the Emergencies Act on Feb. 14, 2022. Many observers noted on Twitter that the prime minister seemed to be speaking with never-before-seen candour and ease. Trudeau has long had a style of speaking—at press conferences, in Question Period, at events—that reads as inauthentic. His speech can be too breathy, his pauses too manufactured, his tone and facial expressions conveying a seriousness that can seem like they were rehearsed in the mirror. It can seem like he over-acts the role of prime minister, as if trying too hard to be understudy for Hugh Grant’s prime minister character in Love Actually. Somehow this recipe for communication comes across as haughty and patronizing, which, if you’re his staff, is not what you want from a prime minister who often faces allegations of elitism. It’s also annoying to listen to him speak. But at the POEC, Trudeau, who couldn’t possibly read from a script, didn’t seem rehearsed. How could he—he sat for many hours facing unknown questions from a variety of groups with vastly different perspectives. Unscripted Trudeau was the most authentic he’s been. He demonstrated a strong grasp of the issue at hand, came across as smart, compelling, and in control. It was a glimpse at a prime minister we don’t often get to see—one which might have matched the image Trudeau famously likes to convey, of a relatable character with his sleeves rolled up, ready to chat with his neighbours about the work that needs to be done. This isn’t the first time authentic Trudeau has peeked out from behind the curtain. He let his guard down somewhat during his daily COVID-19 briefings, and came out the better for it—until he decided to call an election. While his team may worry about the true Trudeau’s tendency to stick his foot in his mouth—it was he Yes, lets! Like his 'Reciting Pi to the 19th 'Decibel'; 'I don't think about monetary policy.'; mansplains to a woman: 'peoplekind' not 'mankind'; and so much more And some real biggies: Trudeau says he's 'serene' about invoking EA, (breaking our own laws as if they're mere nuisances) because... “There is a level of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to turn their economy around on a dime Every word that pours out of that mouth, whether scripted or 'off script' is a lie, a slander, a calculating divisive, hate-stoking, self-serving bit of garbage so unseemly for a Can. PM that the world is voicing its concern. But not, of course, his bought & paid for media.

Trudeau, Ford to mark electric vehicle manufacturing 'milestone' in Ingersoll, Ont.Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is scheduled to make an announcement this afternoon in southwestern Ontario about electric vehicle manufacturing. If EVs are profitable, why do multi billion dollar corporations need hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies to manufacture them? How long till Ford cancels this one. More taxpayer $Billions going to a large corp. to create jobs we have to import people to fill.
