It's not discontinued, just not for sale on this continent. I think the newer generation ones are hybrid or ev. We love ours too and see them around our neighborhood a lot, but apparently they were selling poorly in NA so Honda felt it wasn't worth it to keep sending them.

Why would Smith stop? Carney seems happy to give her whatever she wants because he thinks the rest of the country is a joke.

Municipalities usually have bylaws thst require licenses to operate heavy vehicles and can set the threshold for what qualified as heavy. Would be fun to see someone set a threshold low enough to catch the larger suvs and everything heavier and implement a shadow suv tax.

It's a form of conspicuous consumption like people who spend 3k on a MacBook pro but only use it for checking email, watching video, and using basic office applications and never use it for any of its advanced functions. A lot more destructive though.

So, if you spend 1$ of Skills Development Funds on something you can argue is training related, you can build whatever you want and most municipalities can't even ask you to demonstrate servicing capacity. Also no process to figure out who qualifies for this nonsense.
