You mean companies control and dictate policies to the federal government and their immigration system?
I mean companies apply for working visas and other TFW applications, so yes companies are the ones at fault. They usually have to do LMIA and other proposals for approval.
But, if you are asking me whether companies control and dictate policies to the federal government, i will answer with another question. Does a bear #### in the woods?

I don't know what to read into your bear fecal questions lol.
But maybe the fact that the federal government blindly importing low wage and low skill bodies in the middle of a housing and productivity crisis along with increasing unemployment is having an effect on their horrific polling across the country. If they're doing of their own accord then they're morons. If they're doing it at the behest and under the control of private companies then they're morons.
If the federal government is so afraid of Lululemon, they might as well bring in slaves as well to get up to speed on batteries.
The EV models that did not utilize a heat pump, including the ID.4, saw their batteries reduced by an average of 28 percent, compared to an average of 13 percent for cars with heat pumps, Recurrent’s analysis found. Overall, heat pumps added roughly 10 percent extra range to cars during freezing conditions, the report said.

I'm not so sure. A ten percent range boss l bust that's useful to me for a few weeks a year isn't a deal breaker. Especially if you can charge at home and don't take a lot of trips. I've got to below 30% charge 4 times since I bought my truck in July.
Essentially, I get about 450-500 highway kilometers in the summer, and about 325-375 in the winter (we give around zero most of the winter with 1-3 weeks of -15 or so). Adding 35-40km doesn't really make a big difference unless you're a) traveling a lot, or b) didn't have home charging.
If it's free, sure I'll take it. If it's a $5k option? Nope

Ok, maybe not all of Canada, you have pretty mild winters. But when it hits -20 and you have to go to Edmonton or the mountains, and it goes from not needing to stop to requiring one, maybe two, I'd suspect those types of things would suck more than necessary.
But even if you just city drive, but don't have a home charger, you are going to spend a lot on charging to make up for poor battery warming and more time doing it.

As with most things EV, usage case is important.
At -20 the heat pumps don't offer much help anymore as efficiency of these heat pumps drops quickly. Certainly less benefit than at their optimal efficiency temperature around zero. And at it's best, it's a 13% boost. That's not double the charges, or significantly longer charging. It's 13% more. So you spend about ~3 minutes longer per charge depending on the vehicle
Saw something about them offering it with like $999 down and lease at $149 per month. I didn't read this Jalopnik artical too in depth, and I'm guessing it's only in the U.S. as it cites a $7500 EV credit. But that's quite cheap depending on what the hidden traps are. Mainstream automates definitely seem to suck hard at making these and taking huge losses to get people to buy them.

I know a guy who has not complained about issues with VW. He put a deposit down on the Buzz but is going through so many issues that he is currently questioning whether he will go through with it. I don't recall what pre-delivery issues he is concerned about though.
It had better be an improvement on the Dodge Charger EV because that one is probably the worst EV out there. High Price, awful battery charging, no range, iffy power, and an engine noise from a speaker.
