Tesla sales in Québec plunged 85% in the first quarter, mirroring sharp declines seen in Europe.
Canada has frozen $43 million in Tesla EV rebates due to Trump’s tariffs and fraud concerns.
Musk’s DOGE work sparked backlash, boycotts, and dealership vandalism across the US and Europe.

Tap for spoiler
Lorca is from the mirror universe so he would laud the ketamine addled nightmare Elon turned into as a buffoon of evil
