Plenty of all-electric buses in Toronto…. Maybe all-battery-electric?

Well yes. We don’t have the overhead cabling for the other kind of electric bus.

But that’s not the “first all-electric bus route”, is it? Trolley buses are electric. Toronto has had them since 1922. Heck, Montreal had them until 1966. But Vancouver still runs them.
