And to think, Warren Buffet just bought 38.6% of Flying J Truck Stops, which will be up to 80% by 2023 - me thinks he knows something that the EV fanatics don't

And it still can't get you to Vancouver in 4 hours - wise investment

Knowing Warren, he likely has plans to take out all the fuel pumps and replace them with charging stations.

Obviously you're unfamiliar with Mr. Buffett's investment strategies - somehow that doesn't surprise me

That's a link to an opinion piece written by a fossil fuel promoter. The truth, as I see it, is that as long as we have the Trudeau Liberals or the Scheer Conservatives running the show, we will never be ready for the coming ev revolution.

You're right, it is. And Mr. Buffett's opinion on the topic is bang on

Mr. Buffett has nothing to do with B.C. being ready for the coming ev revolution. Next you'll be providing a link to one of Trump's tweets about 'the ev revolution'. These guys are Merkin Republicans. They cut no ice with Canadians.

There is no "revolution" in BC.
Had you read the post I responded to in the first place, you'd see the relevance and still be with the program, but I called your bluff so now you're in your usual deflect mode

I will presume based on the past it will take us longer to reap the benefits but those benefits will come.

Warren Buffet has it right. A SUCKER IS BORN EVERY MINUTE.
