Because as we've learned in the last 50 years....auto manufacturers are very great at making smart business decisions.

What do they care, lose money, get bailed out.

I think it's ridiculous that people actually believe that EV will be that popular in 13 years. North America isn't the only place that people drive cars and I bet all these "save the earth" people who love electric cars won't make the switch when the time comes where the price point is even at 30K.

Our dependence of oil will be our downfall and it won't be because of electric vehicles.

Who knows, maybe it helps Alberta if they stop over supplying the market and the price goes up again.
