"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7335931\" data-originallang=\"en\">Unfortunately, we don't, and this has been something that we have been asking for. All of the local distribution companies are developing plans to accommodate more electrification, but as far as we're aware, nobody has pulled together a macro estimate for Ontario or for the broader Canadian economy of what we will require in every single jurisdiction to accommodate more vehicles. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7335932\" data-originallang=\"en\">It's safe to say that it's going to be in the billions, but there's no transparency or clarity on what that looks like or who's planning for that build-out to accommodate a higher uptake of EVs, and that's critical. We can build all the public charging ports we want, but if we don't have the transmission lines and the generation capacity, we'll be in a difficult position.</p>",

Toutes les entreprises de distribution locales con\u00e7oivent des plans pour pouvoir accro\u00eetre l'\u00e9lectrification, mais, que ce soit pour l'Ontario ou pour l'ensemble de l'\u00e9conomie canadienne, \u00e0 notre connaissance, personne n'a estim\u00e9 le co\u00fbt global de ce qu'il faudrait faire dans toutes les provinces pour alimenter plus de v\u00e9hicules.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7335932\" data-originallang=\"en\">On peut affirmer sans se tromper que cela co\u00fbtera des milliards de dollars, mais il n'y a pas de donn\u00e9es transparentes ou pr\u00e9cises pour donner une id\u00e9e de la situation ou pour indiquer qui planifie ces am\u00e9nagements pour alimenter un plus grand nombre de v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques, et c'est essentiel.
