I've sometimes written about my car, Tesla Model 3 so far. This car is driven by electricity not gasoline. Public high speed chargers are found everywhere, but I usually charge my car at home and don't use them frequently. When I have to use those public chargers, I've paid the fare for visitors. It's higher than the fares for members, but to get the membership I have to pay the basis rate every month.
I dropped in at a Nissan dealer near my house. Nissan is the car manufacturer which had rolled out the world's first electric car for ordinary use. It's a pioneer company of electric cars. I asked them about a membership of its charging club a few years ago. One of the conditions to become a member at that time was to be the owner of a car from Nissan. I didn't own any. I was ruled out at the first article of the membership agreement.
To my surprise, the 1st article was lifted and the membership was open to anyone. Additionally the basis rate was reasonable. I joined the membership of the Nissan Charging Club without a second thought. It's too stingy, but the charging fee was supposed to be exempt in the first month of the membership and it was early May when I joined the club. I didn't use the charger at home and charged my car at this dealer in almost all of May FOR FREE.
We don't have many charging stations in Canada.
