Transit
Electric Buses
Rail
Which is why I don't get why we want to mandate all vehicles sold by a certain date need to be EVs.
Why not instead focus on the other things, and create heavy incentives for fuel efficient vehicles?

This times a million. Densification is happening at a very rapid pace in the lower mainland. Years ago there should have been skytrain snaking everywhere. Now we are saddled with crazy rising construction costs and years long wait times to get the minimum that should have been done by now. All the while all levels of government and environmental groups are telling me to get out of my car but not addressing the fact that there is no meaningful transit options. They are also NOT addressing affordability issues where people have to move further away from where they work.
What a mess
