Vision, Mission & Values
Vision
A world where everyone’s journey is safe, clean, and fun.
Mission
To utilise the expertise of electric vehicle owners and enthusiasts to help Canadians transition to electric transportation through education and advocacy.
Values
We value Integrity, Diversity and Passion. Our message must be delivered with optimism, enthu-siasm, and honesty. The merits of electric vehicles sell themselves once understood, and do not require high-pressure sales tech-niques.
Teamwork
We collaborate and band together on shared goals and values to help inspire and educate our community on the benefits of electric mobility. Together we are greater than the sum of our parts!
Objects

-
-
- Promoting an interest in vehicles propelled by electric power and which may include hybrid power sources.
- Promoting the reduction of pollution in the air by transportation vehicles, thereby enhancing the natural environment and improving the quality of life.
- Gathering and disseminating information about electric vehicles.
- Providing the means of social activity, mutual helpfulness, recreation, and other advantages of membership.
