A new Leger poll shows Canadians are rejecting the 2035 EV ban. Nearly 70% say it’s unrealistic, while 71% say the mandate should be rolled back. Even among Liberal voters, most oppose it. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has warned the mandate would cost at least $300 billion in grid upgrades and charging stations, while destroying rural communities and wiping out Canada’s auto sector.

Kris is joined by Dan McTeague, President of Canadians for Affordable Energy and a former Liberal MP, to break down exactly why this policy is unaffordable, unworkable, and damaging to the auto industry. McTeague explains that quotas begin in January 2026 — just four months away — and will hammer car dealers with penalties while driving up prices for consumers.

Kris also exposes to the government’s media agenda, recently criticized by no less than the US State Department. The Online News Act was supposed to “save journalism,” but instead gutted independent outlets as Meta blocked Canadian news. Google cut a $100-million deal, yet most of the money flows to legacy outlets like the CBC, already swimming in $1.4 billion in taxpayer funding despite rock-bottom ratings.

The result: Canadians get less access to news and more government-funded propaganda, while everyday families brace for higher costs under a $300B EV fantasy.
