To be clear, I'm not talking about the translink taxes, carbon tax, GST, etc... just specifically the money that goes to road maintenance.
It’s coming, but EV makes up so little of the total volume of vehicles that it’s too insignificant to implement at this stage. It’ll probably be a tax on electricity via smart meters.
