Electric Mobility Canada (EMC) welcomes the opportunity to respond to Transport Canada’s (TC) request for comment on its forthcoming Incentives for Medium- and Heavy-Duty Zero Emissions Vehicles Program (iMHZEV). This is an important new program that will provide crucial support for the Government of Canada’s goal of ensuring that 35% of new medium- and heavy-duty vehicles (MHDV) sales are zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) by 2030. The achievement of that sub-sectoral sales target would reduce transportation emissions and boost progress toward Canada’s economy-wide climate targets in one of the country’s most difficult-to-decarbonize sectors.
