A $ 196.5 million fine was imposed on Volkswagen by a Toronto court for dieselgate. The German automaker pleaded guilty to violating emissions standards by using rigged software that altered the data. She had been accused by the Canadian government last December, with 60 charges, of importing 128,000 vehicles into the country that violate environmental emissions regulations.
