I've been helping Sun Country Highway, the Canadian distributors for Clipper Creek, popularize the roll-out of charging infrastructure in Canada.
The beginnings of the electric highway is already in place in Western Canada. To show how it works, company founder Kent Rathwell is driving his Tesla Roadster from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to the Vancouver International Auto Show in Vancouver, British Columbia using public charging stations along the route. That's a distance of over 1,500 km.
I just got a brief update from Kent. Here are a few pictures:
Charging at Kal Tire in Swift Current, Saskatchewan.
Roadster "family reunion" in Okotoks, Alberta.
Heading west from Calgary, Alberta... might be a few hills ahead... and some rather more wintery weather!
