As a result, the Canadian Automobile Dealers Association estimates, 225 dealers selling other brands were unable to claim about 10 million in Canadian dollars, putting some of them in financial peril.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWhen you\u2019re looking at a 43 million dollar hit over a weekend, an investigation is definitely warranted,\u201d said Huw Williams, a spokesman for the dealers\u2019 association. \u201cThe level of transactions just does not make common sense.\u2019\u2019 <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Tesla did not respond to a request for comment. The Toronto Star first reported the sales rush claims, which were posted on a government website that tracks rebate payments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Under the government plan, which began in 2019, dealers deducted rebates of up to 5,000 Canadian dollars when they sold electric vehicles before reporting the purchase information \u2014 including buyers\u2019 names and the vehicles\u2019 identification numbers \u2014 to the government for reimbursement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The torrent of Tesla claims started on Jan. 10 after Transport Canada warned dealers across the country that the program would run out of money before the end of March. By Monday morning, the account was empty and the program was closed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">About 1,000 dealers selling other brands submitted claims over that weekend but Tesla accounted for about 88 percent of the applications.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cHow did Tesla magically know to hit that number?\u201d Mr. Williams asked, referring to the draining of the rebate programs remaining funds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">While some dealers stacked up claims before submitting them to the government, Mr. Williams said, the Tesla surge \u201cdoesn\u2019t fit any pattern for Tesla going backwards.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He also said that it was physically impossible for the four Tesla dealerships to keep thousands of cars on hand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Williams said that Ms. Freeland told his group that dealers who missed out after Tesla emptied the fund would ultimately be reimbursed, but that how long that might take was unclear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Tesla has become a particular <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/20\/world\/canada\/tesla-canada-musk-trump-tariffs.html\" title=\"\">source of anger among Canadia<\/a>ns since President Trump began imposing tariffs on Canada and calling for Canada to become the 51st state. Annexation has also been championed by Mr. Musk, who holds Canadian citizenship and lived in Canada before moving to the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">An online petition calling on the Canadian government to revoke Mr. Musk\u2019s citizenship has drawn hundreds of thousands of signatures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">More than 80 Teslas were vandalized, their tires punctured and their paint scratched at a dealer Hamilton, Ontario, this month. A Tesla outlet in Montreal was defaced with pink paint. And in Vancouver, organizers of an auto show banned the company over concerns about possible protests and vandalism. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Four Canadian provinces have excluded Tesla from their electric vehicle rebate programs this year. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At least one Tesla competitor has been trying to cash in on the antipathy. Polestar, the Swedish -based, Chinese-controlled EV maker, is offering Canadians a 5,000 Canadian dollar discount if they can prove that they are registered Tesla owners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/27\/world\/canada\/tesla-canada-sales-musk.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As in many places around the world, Tesla sales in Canada have been falling for months, an apparent reaction to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15786,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[332,754,3855,3858,114,329,511,3857,3856,510,5039,5038,334,113],"class_list":["post-15785","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-automobiles","tag-canada","tag-carney","tag-chrystia","tag-donald-j","tag-electric-and-hybrid-vehicles","tag-elon","tag-freeland","tag-mark-j","tag-musk","tag-polestar-performance-ab","tag-rebates-and-refunds","tag-tesla-motors-inc","tag-trump"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Tesla Dealers Claimed They Sold 8,653 Cars in 3 Days in Canada.
