I Have A Plan
Seeing has stimulus plans seem to be in short supply in Canada, I thought I'd offer my plan for a one billion dollar stimulus package for the auto industry.
Let's have the Canadian Government promise to buy one billion dollars of hybrid or electric vehicles in 2009. Offer to replace any vehicle that was registered in January 2009 that is older than 1980 with one of the new cars. Or whatever year gives you the same number of cars as one billion dollars can buy. Stimulus to the auto industry. Stimulus to the local market. Elimination of a huge chunk of our annual pollution.
Any takers?
