The federal government intends to bring back consumer rebates for electric vehicles but doesn’t yet quite know what they’ll look like, Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin said on Tuesday.

The federal government launched its rebate program — the Incentives for Zero-Emission Vehicles program or iZEV, — in 2019, but it ran out of funding earlier this year, leading Ottawa to pause the program.

Speaking to The Canadian Press while leaving the House of Commons — where she spent the better part of question period fending off Conservative criticisms of Ottawa’s EV mandate — Dabrusin said a renewed consumer rebate is something being worked on.

“Will it be named, iZEV? That I can’t tell you. But there will be a consumer rebate,” Dabrusin said.
