Nope. I was well into negative on Reddit for the same.

QC has mountains. Some of the best Skiing and MTBing around. NB has fiber internet. Cheaper too. I recently had fiber installed at my cottage in central Ontario. So you don't have to be anywhere near Toronto. In fact, Toronto is one of the most expensive places for fiber. Smaller towns have actual competition.
Yeah, apparently paying for a service you use and enjoy is stupid or something. 🤷♂️
I just pay for YouTube premium family. We all get add free YouTube. Plus music which we all use. It's a great value and no hastle. More money goes to creators this way as well.
Yup. Perfect is the enemy of good. If you wait for everything to be just right, nothing ever happens.
My local lumber/hardware store has purchased a bunch of them for deliveries in the city. Ford EVs are everywhere I look now. Second only to Tesla. Anecdotal, but I'm sure not all of them are YouTubers. Most of them look like actual working trucks with gear in the back (for the lightning. Obviously not for the Mach-e which I see more of)
Hyundai seems to be the top choice right now. They have the best combination of value, features, technology and reliability.
The Ioniq 5 is, at least where I live in Canada, is on a perpetual waitlist (except for the base 2wd model nobody wants). I'm personally waiting for the Ioniq 7 to replace my rusting Outback.
That's not a commute. I don't commute by car at all. I bike or take transit if I have to commute. A cars sole purpose for me is long trips with the family and going to the cottage, which is 320km away.
That take only works for families with multiple cars. A car would be pointless for me with a less than a 450km (280m) range.
Audi: too expensive, poor reliability Subaru/Toyota: released a shit compliance car.
Again, overpriced junk. My point is that it's not that nobody wants EVs. It's that nobody wants the crap these makers are selling.
I'm normally an NDP supporter as well. Campaigned for the NDP in the Ontario election. The federal NDP has lost the script. They need new leadership and badly. They've lost the union vote which should be impossible but here we are (yes, union heads might support the NDP but rank and file members don't)
