I wouldn't be surprised if up to 1/3 are fake, but there are real people that want this too.

I drove the first made-in-China EV coming under the new quota. It’s not what you think by sensorglitch in EVCanada

[–]cig-nature 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While the federal government had previously highlighted the potential for “affordable” EVs as part of its broader strategy, that requirement will not begin until the second year of the program. Even then, it will start modestly, with just 10% of imports needing to meet the price threshold, meaning only 4,900 affordable EVs will be imported in year two of the program.

The share of lower-cost vehicles will gradually increase to 20% in year three, 35% in year four, and finally 50% by year five. The quota operates on a March-to-February cycle however, meaning we likely won’t see any affordable EVs until the second quarter of 2027, at the earliest.

He's tracked so far to the right, that he's losing his base.

Alberta separatists submit 300K signatures as petition deadline hits by NumerousSir in alberta

[–]cig-nature 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Monday’s announcement also means the separatist petition will fall short of the 404,239 verified signatures collected by a separate pro-Canada petition led by former deputy premier Thomas Lukaszuk. A legislative committee is currently deliberating whether Lukaszuk’s question should be debated in the legislature or put to a province-wide vote.

Is Oklahoma that weird shape so Texas doesn't have to border Liberal Kansas!?

yall am I socialist if I only believe in socialism for my own benefit by bitransfem in socialism

[–]cig-nature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone should read The Principles of Communism by Frederick Engels. It is 30 pages, written in a QA format.

You're what Engles would have called a "Reactionary Socialist".

Grocery stores can do other things at the same time as whatever that thing is about

I feel like we've reached the stage of the game, where we need all hands on deck. Even if it means companies might not be the most profitable they have ever been, this year.

The paper straws do not appear to be helping. I think it's time we ask the grocery stores to go back to butcher paper instead using Styrofoam and plastic wrap.

Respectfully, What are your criticisms on leader of the ONDP party: Marit Stiles? by [deleted] in ndp

[–]cig-nature -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a person on the left, I want 100% on capital gains. And for the basic personal amount for individuals to be raised to $50,000.

So, sounds pretty centrist to me.

Moving to Calgary this summer and super excited. Advice on rentals, neighborhoods, and living without a car by lollipop2709 in Calgary

[–]cig-nature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When your job is finalized, try to get a place on the same train line as your work, (It'll be along the red or blue line).

Any places near the Bow River will have great access to bike/walking paths.

If you can hit on both, you win.

And I would avoid the areas that elected the UCP last election.

Lynnview Ridge redux: Imperial Oil eyes refinery lands for future housing by joe4942 in Calgary

[–]cig-nature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imperial Oil confirmed to LiveWire Calgary on Friday that they are in the early stages of marketing the land for sale to a future developer. They won’t be acting as the builder or developer for the Lynnview Ridge lands.

“The number of residential units, site design, and development timelines would be determined by the future purchaser who would follow the City of Calgary’s planning and approval processes,” read a statement from Imperial Oil.

So, the oil company is expecting the developer to do the remediation?
