Congrats, Francis!

I am envious of the selection of used EV's I see in Quebec. If I'm not mistaken, the provincial gov't offered rebates even on used ones, so lots were imported.

Every once in a while I do a search of what's available around Montreal (just ~2 hrs away from me). Lots of selection.

Sadly, an EV that fits my budget doesn't fit my range needs. A Volt may one day fall in that category though. Or maybe a BMW i3 with the RX.

OK, we need to hear about your ZENN. That's an oddball! I haven't though about those for years and years. My understanding is they were NEV's, thus limited to 25 mph? I assume you picked it up for peanuts?!

And they were assembled in Quebec, if I'm not mistaken.
