Officials are now reviewing the Tesla sales data to determine if any irregularities occurred during the program’s final days.
8,600 Teslas 4 Locations in 3 days (one reported 1,200 sales in one day) $43 mil in rebates ($4 mil in one day)
Let’s be generous and say the cheapest Tesla is $40k before any rebates. That’s $344 mil in sales, with an average of 2,150 Teslas per day.
I’m pretty sure it’s obvious there are irregularities.
Ohh wow governments actually can do basic forensic analysis when they don’t like the oligarch…
hmm, why can’t they do this shit with grocery stores engaged in price gouging?!
Fair point, but don’t make this a whattaboutism. Cheer them on for this
Just just highlighting that the regime can do something about these crimes but they give crocodile tears and do nothing.
Loblaw CEO should the rope for his crimes… but somehow government does not see it like that. hmmm
Governments are like the people. They tend to react only when it’s them that gets hurt. Until then, it’s thoughts, prayers, and “stop buying coffee”.
This is the kind of shit that happens when you think everybody is stupid except you.
Is this loser buying his own cars to try to fraud the government now? “We sold 68 tesla each hours in this location were there’s literately people protesting in front of the dealership.” Of course you did lol. What a pathetic clown.
Well, Usk is a Canadian citizen, so is allowed to buy cars in Canada. Even his own.
Buying a shit ton of your own cars to then claim the government rebate for EVs, but still having those cars available for sale is fraud.
true as that may be, not filing the appropriate paperwork for 6800 cars is likely going to be a problem.
example: Capone was taken down for tax evasion.
Wouldn’t that be fitting? After all this, Elon comes to Canada and is put away for life for defrauding the Canadian government.
If he’s under investigation there, he’ll probably never visit Canada again.
Yes, keep on reminding people how much better Canada is. And, unlike oil, this kind of better can’t be exported by invading.
Does the US have any extradition agreements with CA?
Not for president Musk.
This is FALSE! Elon Musk would NOT Abuse the Government to line his OWN pockets! That’s what SINGLE MOTHERS WORKING THREE JOBS would do!
…really don’t know if you forgot the /s or not. My instinct is to assume you did forget it, but my assumption is also that nazis died in the 40s, and yet here we are with government officials giving the nazi salute on tv. So trusting my instincts hasn’t gone so well recently.
If you couldn’t suss out the obvious sarcasm, it might be time to go offline for awhile and recalibrate.
They didn’t forget it, it’s obvious sarcasm.
It’s a level of obvious sarcasm, so obvious that if it weren’t sarcasm, people would rally together to hunt them down like the dogs they are.
There is no way Tesla offloaded 8600 swasticars in three fucking days. I bet this is hung on some no name middle manager
