That number (if actually valid) would change since many (almost all?) AWD orders would be changed. I plan to do that, if possible, that is why I contacted Tesla to see if I could change my order and still retain the original order date.
agreed. Unfortunately though, when he was specifically asked by individuals who specifically mentioned "I have an order agreement with Tesla, i'm concerned", the reply was exactly the same as someone asking "basically" the same question without mentioning Tesla. They kept going back to "Contracts will be honoured" not "any purchase agreement made will be honoured"
I do not accept that there is a definitive correlation between the governments perception of "Contracts" and our perception. Common sense would think that's what they were talking about.. but clearly this wasn't the case.
The unfortunate outcome appears to be that someone within the government looked at just how many orders there are/ would be for the Model 3, that it was written this way to reduce the financial obligations of the government rebate payouts.
The strange thing to me is that Tesla is a registered dealer through OMVIC. If they are not a dealer.. then why did I pay the OMVIC fee?
At best, it's the misappropriation of semantics for one's own agenda. At worst, it's theft of funds allocated to the EHVIP program.
Then Ford should have used" All Contracts with Dealerships". Don't mislead or confuse the public. Nothing to gain. He is not on Kijiji trying to sell you something. Contract means a legal agreement between two parties. we are obliged to perform our part of the contract with Tesla. Tesla needs to perform their part of the contract.
Ford knew what he was saying. I'm not sure that he has communicated this with his Minister Yakabuski.
I personally don't believe Ford would do this to the customer. (people of Ontario). I think he and Yakabuski think Tesla will be on the hook for the cars.
The MTO has used the same wording as the state government in TEXAS.
So hopefully the PC's see their wrong and fix it.

Is Tesla still submitting the applications for cars being delivered before Sept 11th or have they completely stopped?
Telsa was never submitting the applications. It is up to the consumer.

What? Tesla always submitted application for the rebate.. Not the charger. & sorry I meant to say Sept 10th.
I'm still optimistic that Model 3 orders that are delivered before Sept 10th might still be eligible for the 14k:
"Inventory that dealers have on lots or orders made by dealerships with manufacturers on or before July 11, will also be honoured for the incentive provided that the vehicle is delivered to consumers, registered, and plated by September 10."
I know your new here. But maybe you need to start around thread 90 or so. Some good reads in the posts
The problem is that the orders were not made by the dealership, the consumers made the order directly with the manufacturer. (Unless you went into one of the Tesla dealerships and had them place/process the order for your Model 3.)
Congrats on getting your car. Fingers crossed the report does the trick. We are still very much fighting
Tesla used to submit applications... many moons ago. But that was MANY moons.
Guys please SEND your concerns to Iris Fawcett [email protected] She is the Manager, Transport Programs Office at the MTO and is the one that sent out the notice to all about removing the incentive. Let her know that what they are doing is wrong! Please send ASAP!
I am also impacted. I completed my order on 6/21/2018.
I have already send the email to all of the MPP's. I will now send an email to Iris.
I also just had a discussion with a Tesla rep and he informed me that as it stands, the incentive is no longer applicable. However, he did say that Tesla is trying to work with the government.
Until then, I suggest we keep blasting the MPP's, MTO, Doug Ford, etc..
My fear is that the longer time passes, the less likely there will be any exception for us.

If anyone is or has been sitting on the fence between Tesla and another EV given the rebate has been pulled, it's things like this below that only reinforce for me that Tesla is the only option.
GM claims to be all-in on electric vehicles but CEO Barra asks Trump administration to cut back on EVs.
"This double-face thing is really frustrating to me as an EV enthusiast. It makes it harder to get on board with GM’s EV programs when they are trying to slow down the overall adoption of electric vehicles."
