Is there any depth he won’t sink to?
Maybe it’s as suggested in the article. That the rebate is going to be paused, so Tesla is trying to farm it. You know, for fraud.
But this could also have other motivations behind it.
Like Tesla buying Tesla’s in Canada as some sort of “people aren’t boycotting Tesla. Infact, there has been an INCREASE in sales in Canada. Clearly Tesla’s are trying to be cancelled, and clearly Canada wants to be part of the US” kinda fraud?
As in, trying to bolster Tesla stock. And trying to meddle with another country’s politics.
Only the fucking idiot muskrat applied for government funded rebates on all of them?Cause that’s what this is. Fraud.
Oh look - more fraud. You know, from the fraud guy famous for committing fraud all the time.
The names on all the titles are children of Elon Musk.
In positive news, the title database has expanded their Unicode coverage.
There’s going to be a perfectly reasonable explanation for this … right?
Reasonable yes… legal… not so much.
On Jan. 10, as political turmoil embroiled the federal government, Transport Canada informed dealerships that the EV rebate program would run out of money before its scheduled end in March.
“Due to the high uptake, the iZEV Program will be paused in a few weeks,” stated the email sent to dealerships just before noon on the Friday, obtained by the Star.
By Monday, all the money was gone and Transport Canada announced the EV rebate program was “paused.” It shut down the online claims portal for dealers, leaving hundreds without recourse to recoup their money.
“Tesla had a run on the bank,” said Williams. “Somehow, Tesla gamed the system.”
The crux of the matter is when paperwork called an “eligibility assessment” needs to be filed by the dealership.
On the one hand, Transport Canada says dealers “must always submit an eligibility assessment prior to an incentive being paid.”
On the other, it says, “there is no rule” to prevent them from submitting the paperwork in bulk, after the cars have already been delivered.
Was there some deal? Model Y going up for orders? Surely someone can answer this to at least hint at what happened. How many cars do they normally sell? Is there something in Canada which triggered car sales? Did other manufacturers see similar jump.
Why write such a crappy article with so little info is beyond me. Most people here aren’t Canadian, we got fuck all perspective.
