Recently, the Canadian government has excluded Tesla from its federal electric vehicle subsidy program and has frozen the pending subsidy payments that had been applied for but not yet disbursed. This action is widely perceived as a retaliatory measure in response to the Trump administration's tariffs on Canadian aluminum. Simultaneously, Canada is prioritizing subsidies for brands with local manufacturing facilities, such as Ford and General Motors. Furthermore, the province of Quebec has also rescinded provincial subsidies for Tesla. As a result, Tesla, which has no manufacturing plant in Canada, has become the only major North American electric vehicle manufacturer significantly impacted by these decisions.
