Between January 10 and January 12, after being warned that an EV rebate program was running out of funds, Tesla dealerships in Canada managed to claim 8,669 individual iZEV EV rebates, or about $43 million CAD in incentives. That’s a staggering number of sales to log in a single weekend, about 1.5 sales per minute. Let’s dig into the numbers.
Smells like fraud! Tesla is ran by a grifter. Canada better get their stuff together and arrest or ban Musk from business in Canada or he will have you acting like the US.
Do the right thing Canada. Arrest warrants for all involved.
So from everything I’ve seen about this situation, it looks a whole fucking lot like a massive amount of malfeasance from Tesla. I genuinely hope the Canadian government throws the book at them and absolutely reams them financially for fraud.
I don’t know. The US might hit them with tariffs if they do that!
It’s amazing how if you jump to tariffs the you have no real soft power left
People who don’t threaten physical violence often… you know, softies, the part-time tough guys… they don’t anticipate how long-lasting the negative reaction from their victims will be.
The annexation talk, the 51st state talk, none of that stuff will be directly linked to whatever counterpunch Canada cooks up, but it’ll be hardening the hearts of the Canadian voters to be in favor of ever-more-draconian countermeasures.
I hope those Twitter threats felt great to issue, because we’ll all be paying for those for a good long while on every agricultural transaction (among others!) that we make with our closest ally in the coming decades.
That black Cybertruck almost looks good… as a dystopian Sci-fi prop…
There are bits and pieces of the design that aren’t incredibly offensive. But all put together, it just looks like a mess of a hulk.
The back end screams of 90’s luxor. I was going to say that the hidden door handles are complexity for no advantage, but nearly every component reeks of that. It has one of the largest windshields in existence, yet, you still can’t see out of it well.
Unless they’re all detailed regularly, they look like they’re dirty.
It’s like someone looked at a delorian, then threw away everything they saw and tried to make a truck from a 6yo’s drawing paper.
I saw a black one yesterday. It still looks like garbage in person. That photo is just unjustly flattering.
They don’t come in black. Customers wrap them.
Elon Musk will go down in history as THE EXAMPLE of greed and generational wealth will do to you.
He is the wealthiest man in history, but is still never satisfied. He will never be happy. And you can’t convince me he is happy right now. His actions are not the same as a happy man, but one that is insecure. Literally every decision, action, and even conversation reeks of it.
Hopefully this will educate future generations to tax the everliving fuck out of the rich. American democracy has gotten worse as the tax rates fell.
Powerful Crassus energy to this one.
Seize Tesla and Elon Musk owned property to make up the difference for obvious fraud.
eminent domain seizure and fucking liquidate them
Liquify*
i mean, that TOO.
This exchange reminds me of Soul Music
“I want a stagecoach with liver on the sides,”
“You mean Livery.”
“That too.”
RIP Sir Pratchett
Xelon + fraud? No one is shocked.
100% tarrifs will be a good start
Up next, Elon makes a sovereign wealth fund disappear.
Sounds like fraud to me
Somethings fucky here…
It makes me so happy that I saw protesters today in front of the nearby dealership. Elon a shit.
imagine being the richest person in the world and still committing obvious fraud for a quick million.
Damn. What’s the difference between elon and a petty theif?? At least petty thief’s have some morals. Elons moral compass is stuck in magnetic vortex spinning him out of control
A petty thief can only steal what you currently have. Elon can take away things that you don’t even have yet.
It’s a helluva thing killing a man; you take all he’s got, and all he’s ever gonna have.
Elon now stealing money from Canada taxpayers. US taxpayers not enough.
