Good on BC for standing up to this entitled oligarch.

Does us getting slammed by Elon entitle us to child support or some other reparations?

It is crazy.

It’s crazy that a serial liar, who defrauds his customers with false marketing claims and naked market manipulation isn’t in jail.

It’s crazy that anyone would spend money on a product one of his companies makes, given how he has shown such extremely poor judgment and discipline.

It’s crazy that someone who defames people trying to help people in need, someone who promotes hate and bullying, someone who would lie about something as petty as pretending to be among the worlds best video gamers — it’s crazy he could have a cult following.

It is crazy that Americans handed this lunatic access to their own social safety net, and crazy that they have dismantled the checks and balances to prevent it despite clear warning signs.

It’s crazy that any single Canadian would purchase a car or service from someone who said that ours is not a real country, and works side by side with the person working to invade our country.

It is crazy that someone who does these treasonous things is allowed to maintain Canadian citizenship, despite no ties to the community.

It’s crazy that a single penny of our taxpayer dollars would go to this man.

It’s crazy that it’s even a topic for discussion.

You’re goddamn right it’s crazy.

It is crazy that you excluded "is a Nazi", and even crazier that you didn't lead and end on that point.

Only excluded because I wasn’t thinking straight due to blind rage and insomnia.

Sigh… yeah it’s crazy one can have so many reasons and still not even mention that.

I know that most manufacturers came to an agreement to use the Tesla standard but I wonder what would happen if Transport Canada and the EU decided to adopt a different standard, I think fElon would be pissed...

The EU already has a standard that Tesla uses. Its CCS2

The standard we had in North America CCS1 was different and inferior to Tesla's, so Teslas eventually became an official standard, which is now out of their hands.

There's no purpose to make a new standard now. Everyone is on board with SAE j3400 in NA. It's not Teslas now, it's in the hands of the SAE

It's so crazy. It's so crazy that someone can act like a Nazi on the world stage and have to suffer the Consequences. He chose to fuck around. Now he gets to find out.

Or to be more Canadian. He Effed Aboot and now he gets to Find Oot.

His companies rely on government subsidy and will fail without them.

He is the ultimate hypocrite.

FElon is just a big creepy crybully shyster. No one should trust or care about a word he says.
