  • A First Look at Ontario’s Electric Vehicle Incentive Program

    Can ErutkuARTICLECanadian Public Policy2020Cited by: 2References: 1

    This article provides a first look at Ontario’s Electric Vehicle Incentive Program, which was designed to support the adoption of plug-in electric vehicles, reward early adopters, and stimulate market demand. Under this program, the Ontario government offered financial incentives to plug-in electric vehicle buyers. Although the market share of plug-in electric vehicles in Ontario followed an upward trend, it remained below 1 percent of the new ca…

  • Carbon Tax at the Pump in British Columbia and Quebec

    Can Erutku, Vincent A Hildebrand et al.ARTICLECanadian Public Policy2018References: 1

In this study, we seek to verify whether or not this perception is justified, and we attempt to explain our results. We have recorded the retail price of gasoline on Thursdays and Fridays in 11 Canadian cities over a period of four years. Although our procedure differs from that adopted by the Conference Board (2001) in an earlier study, we arrive at …
