reply from Doug Ford:
"Thanks for getting in touch with me to share your views about the Electric and Hydrogen Vehicle Incentive Program (EVHIP). I appreciate having this opportunity to hear from you.
As you've heard, our government cancelled the cap-and-trade carbon tax on July 3 as part of our commitment to bring gas prices down by 10 cents a litre and help reduce costs for Ontario families and businesses by $1.9 billion dollars annually.
Given that the EVHIP was funded through the cap-and-trade carbon tax, we have taken steps to begin winding this program down. Applications will be accepted from dealerships, car owners or prospective car owners only if one of the following conditions has been met:
- Eligible vehicles that have been delivered to consumers, registered and plated on or before July 11 will receive the incentive.
- Inventory that dealers have on lots or orders made by dealerships with manufacturers on or before July 11, will also be honoured for the incentive provided that the vehicle is delivered to consumers, registered and plated by September 10.
We've also cancelled the Electric Vehicle Charging Incentive Program, effective July 11. Charging stations purchased or installed before this date will be eligible to receive incentives if the application is submitted within 60 days of July 11. We'll post any updates to the Ministry of Transportation website at
Electric vehicles incentive program.
As promised, we're getting Ontario out of the carbon tax business. Our focus will be to give people lower gas prices, lower energy bills and a real break in their wallets in order to get our economy going and create jobs. Help is here.
Thanks again for contacting me.

Nothing worse than someone patronizing you. cut and paste from MTO website. Saying the same thing over and over again just means you don't want to answer the real question. Why are some consumers being treated differently? PC Morons. This is what we have representing the people of Ontario. Politics is sickening. Saving the people .10 \ltr. BS. What happens when oil is $90 a barrel. that .10 is garbage.
This guy is a great representation of us in Ontario. 2 packs of smokes a day, Treating woman as sexual objects, drunkard, drug seller during high school days. Mulroney and Elliott sold themselves for minister positions to this guy. Pathetic.
just my rant.
