About this incident specifically: maybe I was too quick to judge. But I'll still hate the company for making pieces of shit overpriced Swastikars.

Really, that's all I'm hoping people will realize and take forward with them in the future through this experience.
Still plenty of reasons to hate the company, this doesn't change that.
That's fair and acceptible by the rules the Canadian gov't had in place.
And I get people being unhappy Tesla used the rules to their own benefit ... but the problem isn't with Tesla ... it's with the Trudeau gov't who did sfa to make the rules strong, where 'saving' sales for a future 'windfall' was NOT allowed.
Don't be pissed at the messenger here. Be angry with the leadership that made lax rules that helped the rich cunts more than it did the average human being.
Womp womp "Despite the clearance, Tesla will still be excluded from future iZEV programs"
As it should be, we're in an illegal trade war and he had his part to play in things.
I'm honestly surprised that any company would sit on $43 million for any substantial period. While I'm happy that American companies and Tesla in particular are being removed from the EV rebate program, I'd be happier if the stupidest trade war ended and Musk stopped being an enormous piece of shit.
Hmm no thanks, I'll keep on hating Tesla.
Sorry to say, I don't believe a word of it.
Lmao,
CTV News asked the office of Minister of Transport if all the claims made by Tesla in January were valid and if they’ve been paid out. Minister Chrystia Freeland’s office has yet to provide a clear answer and did not confirm that they’re looking at potentially launching a new rebate program.
But ya, I'm sure driveteslacanada isn't a biased source with its fuckin referral links for tesla's at the bottom of the page.
It's on Benzinga as well
And yahoo

In an email to the Canadian Press, a spokesperson for Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland said that while the department is still assessing a few claims, Transport Canada's investigation found the claims made by Tesla "were determined to legitimately represent cars sold before January 12."
