Osler EV infrastructure and investment summit: Government support

Canada’s achievement of its electric vehicle (EV) goals relies heavily on federal and provincial incentives and investments. As part of the Osler EV infrastructure and investment summit, government support is a key area of focus. In this webinar, Brian Kingston, President and CEO, Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers’ Association and Andrew Ramsay, Senior Vice President, Gallagher Energy Risk Services join Colena Der, partner, Tax as they discuss government support programs, tax incentives, government mandates to transition to EV adoption, and managing risks for projects relying on government assistance. Political risks associated with the newly elected Trump administration, as well as potential change in Canada with an approaching election are also discussed. While federal and provincial incentives have helped advance industry goals, ongoing efforts are necessary to establish a sustainable adoption of EV in Canada.
