I am eager to pursue Québecs new partnership
with The Climate Group through the EV20 Policy
Initiative, which will make it easier for state
and provincial governments to share best
practices on electric vehicles. I now call upon
all sub-national governments to also put
sustainability and the green economy at the heart
of their plans for economic growth and join the
Clean Revolution." Premier Charest (September
