Maybe I should Build A Tesla Factory In Canada – Elon Musk

American Multinational Automotive And Clean Energy Company Tesla Is Eyeing Canada For Its Next Factory At A Time When U.S. Electric Vehicle Makers Are Looking To Diversify Supply Chains And Lower Their Dependence On China.

While Onstage At Tesla’s Annual Shareholder Event, CEO Elon Musk Hinted That The Automaker Would Choose The Location For A New Gigafactory By The End Of The Year.

Musk Jokingly Asked His Fans Where The Company Should Build, And When A Few Yelled Out “canada!” Musk Replied, “i’m Half Canadian. Maybe I Should.”

It Seemed Like A Throwaway Comment At The Time, But A July Lobbyist Registration From Tesla Reveals The Company Might Actually Have Its Eyes Set On The U.s.’s Neighbor To The North.
