That facility, it said, would be able to supply 500,000 electric vehicles annually.

That is a lot of batteries.

It is actually probably a GOOD thing this was not done ten years ago. Back then, it would have been bought out by an American firm in short order. Now, there is little stomach for selling out to the Americans. Today, this has a really good chance of remaining Canadian,

Good. Better late than never. The dope running the US has made a lot of us wake up.

Amazing! Hope this drives a larger renewable initiative and get Canada into a strong renewable power position in the market.

We can definitely ween ourselves off gas and go full in on electric if we had the desire, solar, wind, hydro, and battery storage to top it off.
