newer form letter than the reply to my Feb 2016 inquiry re Ottawa, but mine had a personal signature - time to ask him again! will advise ... but I'm not holding my breath ;-(
I just checked Tesla's Website a few minutes ago, but it was not yet listing anything for Perry Sound on the Supercharger Page!
However - Based on your comment - I added a listing for this location on PlugShare - which also did not have a listing there yet:
Perry Sound, ON (Supercharger Placeholder) - Perry Sound, ON (Supercharger Placeholder) | Parry Sound, ON | Electric Car Charging Station | PlugShare
It may get - either Edited - or Deleted and Replaced, by Tesla and the PlugShare Team - at the Appropriate time, I presume!
Hmmmm..that was quick! The Posting seems to have disappeared from PlugShare in a very few hours since I added it!
Parry Sound now shows up on the Tesla Supercharger web page for "Today". However if you click the "2016" tab it disappears but Huntsville, Sudbury and North Bay appear. So it still isn't clear, at least not to me, whether Parry Sound is taking the place of Sudbury or North Bay or whether they are still on for the near future.
And....the PlugShare Listing has been (Re)Listed now: Parry Sound Supercharger | Parry Sound, ON | Electric Car Charging Station | PlugShare - since the one I added was '95074' and this one now is '95142'!
I had also added a Place Holder for the one at Huntsville - at 70 King William St, at the Huntsville Mall, using Tesla Model S HPWC & CHAdeMO - this a Title of - Huntsville Supercharger (Place Holder - Coming Soon) - but that is now disappeared from PlugShare as well! Since it has been dropped, maybe that means Tesla is also about to turn it on there and add the listing to PlugShare themselves as well?!!
Location - Huntsville Superchargers.
I was chatting with the folks at plug share about Parry Sound earlier today. Apparently they've been asked by Tesla not to list any super chargers that are not on the Tesla company website. And so I suspect they delete any that people put up.

I got excited! I saw what looked like the Huntsville superchargers open. Plugged in and nadda. Called Tesla and they said it's probably permitting that's delaying the power from being turned on and until it shows up in my NAV system and on my map, assume it's not functional.
*i didn't read the ^ above messages, sorry if I duplicated any info. I haven't been on TMC for a few weeks. Those who recognize my username name, yes, I know I owe you guys updates about my MX now that I have it back from the SC (finally!!! - 2+ weeks later)

FYI - Parry Sound worked perfectly. Note that there are no sidewalks towards McDonald so you'll need to walk along the road to get over there - or hike up the slope.

Good grief! In Ontario, any "permitting" would be long done at this point. I assume this is in Lakeland Power's service territory and all they would have to do is install revenue metering equipment and energize. They may need an ESA inspection and connection authorization, but again, this should already be done by now. Once the service is energized, it would be up to Tesla to be on site to initialize their equipment.

But it is on the Tesla website, at least the "Today" page of the Tesla SuperCharger website. But if you believe the "2016" map then Parry Sound will be removed by the end of the year
I don't think they maintain those "2016" planned charger maps at all. I haven't heard of any action in either Sudbury or North Bay. if they were still looking at this year, it would be underway by now. Although, Parry Sound and Huntsville are more important I think, so I'm happy to see that.

I wonder if Tesla needs to hire a part time energy/utility consultant... just sayin' !
Nice reply Mike, always informative.

Then we are probably just waiting for Tesla or their contractor to come and initialize the station. The electric utility simply supplies power to the demarcation point and it is up to the owner to "turn on their main breaker" if you will.
Still waiting as of today at 13:00. Blue plastic tape still on the plugs. Curbs nearby still not finished but would cause no grief to anyone and surely can't be the reason for the delay.
Maybe next week ...Huntsville is no longer even listed as an "Opening Soon" site on Supercharger | Tesla . But Parry Sound is now at least on the projected 2016 map and hasn't replaced Sudbury or North Bay - so they do update the projected view but don't remove any that are unlikely to come in 2016 - perhaps the map should be labeled "2016 and later"
