So the idea that EV doesn’t work in colder climates is not consistent with their popularity in Canada. Then there’s Norway, Sweden, etc that have been using high volumes of EV for years. Guess they didn’t get the memo that EVs don’t work in cold weather.

They don't work in cold weather unless in the circumstances I provided. That has been proven by those who LOVE EVs.
Long trips in the cold - NO
Outside cold weather parking - NO
Long charge times for batteries outside in ambient temps - YES
If you are going to make posts about cold weather usage , at least acknowledge the facts about batteries, charging, and range depletion. This isn't opinion at all.
