List of Details Subject matter Detail Climate, Economic Development, Environment, International Trade, Transportation Engage with government and provide guidance with regard to policy responses to China's automotive trade practices, in an effort to protect Canada's automotive sector, ensure electric vehicle affordability for Canadian consumers, and the achievement of Canada's greenhouse gas reduction objectives. Climate, Energy, Transportation Engage with government and provide guidance with regard to the establishment and implementation of an effective electric vehicle strategy for Canada in a holistic manner, focused on demand and supply policy in the electric vehicle space. This includes providing recommendations to government with respect to addressing any policy, program and regulatory proposals which may impact market fairness and equality among automotive retailers or brands, or that may negatively impact subsets of consumers in Canada. This further includes providing recommendations to government in regard to transitioning some demand-side program funding streams from tax-base to revenue-neutral, non-tax and avoidable regulatory charges, while increasing access and providing program benefits to consumers interested in larger vehicle classes. The objective is to maximize greenhouse gas reduction benefits of these demand-side programs while also establishing the required supply-side policy to support demand-side goals, such as through strict light duty vehicle emissions regulation, zero emission vehicle standards or a combination of both.
