Ensure maximum consumer choice within EV purchase incentive programs while maintaining a fair and competitive marketplace and a focus on the government’s environmental objectives. Further ensure fair treatment of all manufacturers regarding program eligibility and the reimbursement of purchase incentives already issued to consumers on behalf of the Government of Canada by dealers. Tesla intends to participate in policy, regulatory and legislative consultations and processes that pertain to cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, information security, sourcing and trade matters associated with: connected vehicles, automated vehicles, automated driving systems, electric vehicles, battery energy storage equipment, and factory equipment. Tesla will advocate for regulation, and where required legislation, that supports the homologation and safe deployment of Automated Driving Systems (ADS) in Canada. Engage with government and provide guidance with regard to policy responses to international trade practices, in an effort to protect Canada's battery and automotive sector, ensure the achievement of Canada's greenhouse gas reduction objectives. Engagement with government through consultations and meetings related to emissions standards, electric vehicle strategies and battery material supply chain with respect to the design of policy and regulatory frameworks to ensure: barriers to electric vehicle adoption are being addressed; an effective battery material supply chain for the North American industry is being established; effective and strong vehicle greenhouse gas standards are in place; and that attention is being paid to barriers facing the adoption of electric trucks. Tesla will encourage government departments and their agencies to establish or further enhance policies and programs that support the deployment of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in Canada. In particular, for light duty vehicle charging in multi-unit residential properties, in dense urban settings, along remote corridors and at federal properties, including national parks. Heavy-duty freight electrification and supporting infrastructure in the logistics sector will also be a focus. Furthermore, Tesla will apply, from time to time, for infrastructure funding where eligible, through competitive merit-based funding application processes as they are issued by Natural Resources Canada. Engage with government and provide guidance with regard to the establishment and implementation of an effective electric vehicle strategy for Canada in a holistic manner, focused on demand and supply policy in the electric vehicle space. This includes providing recommendations to government with respect to addressing any policy, program and regulatory proposals which may impact market fairness and equality among automotive retailers or brands, or that may negatively impact subsets of consumers in Canada. This further includes providing recommendations to government in regard to transitioning some demand-side program funding streams from tax-base to revenue-neutral, non-tax and avoidable regulatory charges, while increasing access and providing program benefits to consumers interested in larger vehicle classes. The objective is to maximize greenhouse gas reduction benefits of these demand-side programs while also establishing the required supply-side policy to support demand-side goals, such as through strict light duty vehicle emissions regulation, zero emission vehicle standards or a combination of both. Engage Measurement Canada and other relevant departments in discussions about charging station metrology and fair billing practices with the intention of enabling EV charging station billing on an energy (kWh) basis.
