Today, Julie Dabrusin, Parliamentary Secretary to the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, announced an investment of $18.6 million to multiple organizations to install over 1,600 L2 and L3 chargers in Toronto and across Canada.

The installation of these chargers will help EV drivers get to where they need to go with confidence and ease. Before hitting the roads, Canadians can easily map out their route by consulting Natural Resources Canada's (NRCan) Electric Charging and Alternative Fuelling Stations Locator..

Federal funding for this project was provided through Natural Resources Canada's Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program. To date, NRCan investments are helping to deploy over 41,000 EV chargers across the country where they are most needed.
