A Yellowknife man bought a fully electric truck, expecting to install the 80 amp Level 2 charger it came with at his home. Then he found out he’d need to pay $12,000 to upgrade a transformer in his neighbourhood to make it work.

We don’t need to upgrade the grid ourselves, we need to push the government to force these companies that make astronomical amounts of money off of us to upgrade their network. There’s no reason why they need to have even a single drop of profit flow out to investors if they can’t modernize their grid.
Maybe we just need to set a deadline for grid upgrades or they get nationalized.
No, no. I’m ok with us uograding the grid ourselves.
Re-nationalize the power companies.
