Quebec has announced it will allow the sale of gas-powered vehicles beyond the 2035 deadline set by the federal government, defying a broader push toward full electrification. The province’s decision comes as part of a broader strategy to balance environmental goals with consumer choice and industry adaptation. Critics argue the move could undermine Canada’s climate commitments, while supporters highlight the need for a gradual transition. The announcement raises questions about how Quebec will align its policies with federal emissions targets while addressing public and automotive industry concerns.
