B.C.’s energy minister plans to introduce legislation next year to amend the provincial policy requiring all new light-duty vehicles sold by 2035 to be zero-emission, adjusting the target so it doesn’t apply to all sales. The move comes six years after B.C. became the first jurisdiction in the world to legislate such targets.
Energy Minister Adrian Dix told reporters in Victoria that the electric vehicle (EV) sales goal of 90 percent by 2030, and 100 percent by 2035, was no longer a “realistic” goal.
