Everyone is currently shoving EV down our throats and they don't have the infrastructure to support it yet.

In Canada, we have severe winters in most places and most of the people park on the street and don't own a garage. Plows have to clear the roads and sidewalks, and how are they going to do that when people are charging their EV?

Not to mention, the colder it is, the slower the car charges and lower it holds the charge as well.

EV seems like a thing in 20 years. At the moment, have hybrid or hydrogen powered ICE seems like the way to go.
