Winnipeggers will soon be able to charge their vehicles while they eat a Big Mac.
Manitoba Environment and Climate Minister Kevin Klein said the province is giving a $176,000 grant to Eco-West Canada to install electric charging stations at three McDonald’s locations in Winnipeg.
“This support from the Manitoba government and Eco-West makes it convenient for our patrons to enjoy our food while recharging their vehicles for the road ahead,” said Amit Kapoor, a McDonald’s Canada franchisee.
