Hooman Javdan ordered an electric car in June, 2017. One of his first moves was to kill Ontario’s cap and trade program, which provided the revenue for the electric car incentives (ranging from $5,000 to $14,000 per vehicle). Under a wind-down program, the government said electric car buyers would qualify for rebates if their vehicles were ordered before the incentive program was cancelled on July 11, and delivered, registered and plated by Sept. 10. Why are we left holding the bag and out $14,000?” Disclosure: The buyers I quoted (and others) wrote to me after seeing my name in an online forum for electric car buyers. Another option for electric car buyers is to appeal to the Office of the Ombudsman of Ontario.
