Car crashes kill about 2,000 Canadians each year.
But traffic pollution has a second, quieter toll.
Health Canada estimates roughly 1,200 premature deaths annually are linked specifically to traffic-related air pollution. Fine particles and nitrogen oxides from vehicle exhaust are associated with asthma, heart disease, and stroke — especially for people living near busy roads.
Electric vehicles produce no tailpipe emissions. In a country where most electricity is already low-emission, electrifying transportation doesn’t just change energy sources — it changes the air people breathe.

Sometimes the biggest upgrade… is the one you can’t see.
