The B.C. government is continuing its push to get more drivers behind the wheel of an electric vehicle by recharging it’s $7-million EV charger rebate program.

“It will put us on track to meeting our 100 per cent sales target by 2035,” said Josie Osbourne, Minister of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation.
