Please help spread the word, and take action!

Members of various EV clubs in Ontario (EVCO, DEVA, EVSC) have been told by the MTO (Ontario Ministry of Transportation) that they can not register their newly converted electric vehicles, and have not been given a valid reason. The MTO has not published publicly any document or announcement about this ban on EV registrations. We are not aware of any successful electric vehicle registrations since Feb 10, 2010. This has also affected a member that tried to register an OEM EV imported from the USA, which is not a converted vehicle.

Rick Lane has written a letter to the Ottawa Citizen that appeared in the April 3, 2010 edition about this issue.

Darryl McMahon has written an open letter to the Minister of Transportation in Ontario (MTO).

Darryl has also started a website to capture more information and guide people how to take action.
