With EV rebates back, will your next car be electric? Plus: Crotch-gate takes over the Olympics, and the cost of a Super Bowl ad in Quebec.

from The Big Five Podcast · host CJAD 800

Elias Makos caps off the week with Lea Streliski, Best-selling author, comedian and columnist, and Victor Henriquez, Public affairs and crisis management specialist at Public Strategy and Conseil. The federal government announced the return of purchase rebates for electric vehicles. Starting next week, the SAQ will sell a limited selection of U.S. wines and spirits online and at Dépôt stores, at a discount, to clear stock sitting in warehouses. The Winter Olympics are upon us, and there’s already a controversy over the performance enhancing measures some athletes are taking. The scandal is unfolding in ski jumping over so-called “crotch enhancements.”
