The number of owners of electric cars and their hybrid cousins is growing in Eastern Ontario. Russell Township council wants to know if there is a way to cash in on the tou- rism potential by becoming a charge-up stop for e-cars travelling the circuit between Ottawa and Montréal. Paul Camiré, regional spokes- man for Sun Country Highway Company, an outfit that supplies charging stations and other equipment for servicing electric cars, made a presentation to council about the municipality setting up its own charging sta- tions at a select number of community buil- dings as a start to filling the Prescott-Russell gap in the available charging stations between Ottawa and Montréal. Council will have its economic development committee study the subject for a report and recommendation at a later session of council. – Gregg Chamberlain Township checks into electric car tourism
