Gas vehicles to be phased out in Canada by 2035. Will you be able to charge near your home?

As the Canadian federal government plans to discontinue the sale of gas vehicles by 2035, Toronto is witnessing an influx of electric vehicles (EVs). The city has installed 50 charging stations, aiming to support this transition. However, residents like Damon Runyan, residing in the east end, express concerns about the limited infrastructure. Runyan, critical of the situation, believes that the installation of only two charging stations on his street is insufficient and predicts potential overcrowding issues. He questions the feasibility of mandating such a transition, considering the current scarcity of charging points.
