Thank you for taking the time to send your online message about electric vehicles, climate change and incentive programs. I appreciate your sharing your concerns with me.
With a growing population and expanding urban regions, transportation emissions pose one of our province's greatest challenges in achieving our ambitious greenhouse gas pollution reduction targets. By making it easier for people to switch to an electric vehicle, we are taking an important step in our fight against climate change while ensuring our province remains productive and efficient.
As the issue you raised falls within the area of responsibility of my colleague the Honourable Steven Del Duca, Minister of Transportation, I have forwarded a copy of your correspondence to him. Minister Del Duca, or a member of his ministry staff, will provide you with a response.
Once again, thank you for contacting me. Please accept my best wishes.
Kathleen Wynne
Premier of Ontario

Let me translate from bureaucratese:
Thanks for offering me your two bit opinion. This was received by one of my flunkies, so please now allow me to assign said flunkie the task of responding with a form letter that is intended to feign genuine concern and interest.
Blah blah blah... generic paragraph about happy green stuff, love environment, climate change.
Please allow me to dump this into the inbox of another flunkie working for another department. Said flunkie will respond with another form letter in due course, expressing both interest and concern with very high levels of feigned sincerity. We hope that will make you go away. We know that you won't vote for us anyway.
Generic sunshiney closing.
N.O. Name Flunkie
Intern for the Deputy Assistant to the 12th sub-secretary in charge of walking Kath Wynne's dog.
c. Nobody who cares.
