ZENN cars stalled in Canada
National Canadian regulators dragged their feet before finally requiring provincial approval for the electric cars built by ZENN Motor Co. and Transport Canada has also proposed language for low-speed cars that suggests they may be unsafe, ZENN founder Ian Clifford alleges.

Federal officials have denied any wrongdoing, Canwest reported.
