Thanks for this, Stewart. I think you're right on that the existential threat will be the top priority until it's under control. But what if electrifying everything is a cornerstone of building the secure economy and society that can withstand the external threat?

Say yes, to everything you said. On the other hand, the previous government heavy push on electric vehicles has left many voters with a sour taste in their mouths. except buildings and promises to Battery and manufacture implants that failed to be built, and EV batteries that have not been constructed.

Facing an existential threat as a country, major decisions on electrifying everything aren't the top priority.

At least, that's how I see it.
