Do they not consider Drummondville to be part of Eastern Canada, or have they given up on Quebec? The city there supposedly has already approved everything, so the Drummondville timetable should be ahead of Barrie's.
Today I noticed on the Tesla Find Us map that a service center is "coming soon" to Detroit. The map also shows the Atheneum Suite Hotel in Detroit has an 80A HPWC with two connectors. Would Tesla really build a service center without including at least one or two superchargers, if not the usual six or eight?

That service center has been "coming soon" for the better part of two years now. Michigan law prohibits any manufacturer from operating a service center that services anything other than their own fleet vehicles (or having their own store, for that matter).

Could TM bypass Hydro Quebec permitting requirements by placing "portable" Superchargers in strategic locations?
Is it because people are afraid of aggravating and slowing down an already stuck process? Is there a way we could put pressure on HQ publicly to expose what their problem is with the project? I don't understand the secrecy and hush-hush nature of the dissemination of any information ... or lack of.
How can it help to keep it private?

Wow those guys were moving. Amazing how chilly weather speeds up outdoor construction jobs. Looks like transformer next...hopefully see some Tesla crates arrive soon too!

is the first picture just a 180 deg shot from the same location as the second pic?
Keep 'em coming!

Pretty much, yes.
I am impressed at how quick and efficient these guys operated. No messing around and still on site at 4:30pm on a Friday! I'm guessing phase 2 is scheduled for Monday morning. I believe Tesla has mandated expediency. Kingston is arguably one of the most important SC links in North America, enabling travel between Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal. Oh, ya...and Elon spent some time here a few years back. Happy and proud to have a Tesla SC in my hometown. Kingston is a great town.

Yes, Kingston does rock! I've been here my whole life, great city. Influx of 10,000 female students age 18-25 every year doesn't hurt either. Elon said that was the main reason he chose Queens University over other schools, lol.
Will try to charge at my friend house using his dryer outlet
Doug, when's your next trip to Toronto? We know the supercharger will be ready the week after that...

Maybe I can fill in for Doug this time around. I've got a trip to Toronto on Dec 4th, so it'll probably be done the week after that.
